"Tranquilium" Exhibition
"Tranquilium" Exhibition
Artist Reception: Friday, November 22nd 7-9 PM
in the Project Gallery at Arc
TRANQUILIUM is an art installation focused on the impact of human activity on the environment. Through this exhibition the artists seek to heighten awareness of our relationship with nature and our environment.
This installation is the collaborative effort of two San Francisco based artists, Philip Alden Benn and Mido Lee. The artists integrate points of light, projected apparitions, and assemblages of iconic objects sourced from nature to recreate a hypothetical natural environment. Elemental constituents of light, air, earth and water are situated in a contained space forming a zone of tranquility. The overall effect is a balanced, fragile and sensitive bio-luminescent integral system. Through entering the space, the viewer is offered a point of departure from the exhibition space into a technologically activated, multi-dimensional rendition of nature in a pure virtual, utopic and edenic form.
Exhibition dates: November 14 - December 7, 2013
