The Ephemerals
The Ephemerals frames the color of the sky and the quality of light passing through windows. Modular shapes form a geometric structure of ombre hues that bridges two glass walled study rooms in the central area of Pinney Library, Madison, Wisconsin. The luminous cut and painted paper pieces project subtle light changes throughout the day and over two seasons. “Ephemerals,” describes plants that emerge with temporal blooms at the very end of winter. The installation offers similar focal points of color at a time when they might be needed in this public space.
