Ship Wreck- storm
After the two Tano Festa sculptures, I started to get my own ideas. This one was a little elaborate. I envisioned a ship wreck in a film scene, and a woman in her stateroom looking out the window at the storm that would soon sink the ocean liner she was on. These three discs are like three film frames of a movie, each one slightly different, and are the view out through the port hole sequentially as a measure of time. The waves in the background represent the ocean, and the slats are the rain and clouds. White slats are clouds and the grey slats are rain. The far right one is just white slats - just clouds. The middle has a grey slats between every two white slats indicating rain and clouds, and the far left disc the grey alternates every other white, indicating more rain. The yellow on the sides of all the slats represents the sun, which is always present above and behind bad weather, and is only visible when you view these from an angle. The dics are hung on a single nail and can be rotated to create different patterns. As you walk past these they change. I know, how did I come up with this?
