Los Angeles, California
Miniaturize yourself in a field of giant abstracted Cattails!
At night, its billowy wind swaying shape becomes a multi-color, illuminated, undulating mass. You can watch its ever changing mood as it displays an array of colored light sequences. Lounge beneath it and watch its mesmerizing color changing display.
The inspiration derives from the environment created by a field of cattails.. This installation consists of large coroplast hexagon abstract cattails. Each cattail light module controlled by a networked micro controller that will gradually array multiple colors. During the day, relax under the cattails by its gentile sway and shade, and lounge under its canopy and its ambiance of ever changing animated light at night.
