Sunup/Sundown
200 Liberty Street
1/17-11/11
Is an exhibit inspired by the vibrant sunrises and sunsets on the waterfront at Brookfield Place. The artwork captures the mysteries of the cosmos and our place within it.
“The sun has long been understood to be one of our most powerful and universal symbols of life. It is also our greatest source of energy. These two qualities converged in my mind as I developed the artwork, fueled by the dramatic sunsets I have seen at Brookfield Place. Besides references to time, change, the moons and planets beyond, other motifs in the work are representations of the waterfront at high and low tide and the spectacular palms of the Winter Garden. As a public installation, the exhibition will stand daily as a reminder of the dramatic colors of both sunrise and sunset, as well as the mystery of the cosmos and our place within it.”
