||
| Kinetic sculpture. | ||
|
||
| Rise and Fall, is an installation that explores
the state of flux. The flags serve as a metaphor for cycles on the micro and macro
level: houses, cities, civilizations - history's story of dominance and defeat.
The piece works to create the feeling of pushing out of the hill, then dying,
settling, back into it. The piece was constructed of wood from demolished houses and shacks in the Pittsburgh area. Rise and Fall was a BigBot commission for Robot 250, a robotic festival in Pittsburgh. |
