art+architecture
Atmosphere #1 and 2
Computer generated images
E-stat prints, laminated between glass.
Each 400 x 600cm high.
2003 This work was commissioned for a new campus of
Cooloola Sunshine Institute of TAFE and the architect asked for
work to relate to the external environment.
The work relates to the atmospheric quality of the sub-tropical
climate on the Sunshine Coast and causes an awareness of environment
as the images change according to external or internal light. The
character of the images is especially transient at dawn and dusk,
when the balance between internal and external light changes.
The energy expressed in the images acts as a counterpoint
to the materiality of the building and their format over the full
height of a double-height space disrupts conventional perspective
and scale.
