Light House 1, Jackson Ward, Richmond, VA

Culley and Savvidou propose to create a house made from light that will sit in one of the infill blocks next to Visual Arts Store on Broad. Light House will be a 3-d line drawing, a super-simplified architectural representation. Light will be projected to define the outlines of an 'imaginary' house that would fill the void between its neighbors. Ideally the public would be able to 'enter' this house and move through the space that is defined.

EN LIGHT EN

This performance piece plays on the words -- InLight and Enlightenment. It incorporates parts from Hans Christian Anderson's Little Matchstick Girl andThomas Paine's Common Sense in the format of a storytelling.

Object: Sanctify



This installation is part of the artist's larger body of work that is interested in the sanctification of the small, the discarded, the unimportant and the minute. Object: Sanctify began with letters to friends and family asking them to "give up" an object in their life that they kept "only because of the promises that they had made to the object." The artist promised to be the keeper of these objects, to watch over them - appointing herself "The Guardian of the Discarded." These collected objects will be installed in a wooden shrine with a luminaria trail leading to it, as if it were a holy place.

Modeles


This installation will explore the depths of patterns and how they communicate between one another. Animations containing conversational, abstract, organicand geometric information will be combined to create a constantly chenging series of patterns. Small stencils called "gobos" will be designed by the artist and installed into the moving light fixtures.

"what is beauty?"


Colored LED lights will be installed in the gutters and trash cans along the designated blocks on Broad Street, illuminating a part of the streetscape otherwise overlooked.
