Phase Garden

Phase Garden

12 towers, each an independent channel of light and sound are arranged in circular form. Visitors are welcome to wander throughout, sit, spin, dance or just be in the piece for any amount of time. The artwork is based on a process of connecting cosmic ratios to light and sound events in an immersive environment. The melodic scale, color palette and frequency (rhythm) of these events are all derived from the periodic relationships of the earth, sun, and moon at various and combined scales.

This work is an expression of the ecstatic math that exists in the universe, and our work to visualize and sonify that math is an effort to deepen our relationship to these cycles and combinations. The events described in this artwork are compressed and organized in such a way to allow a more direct and intimate connection to their phasing, frequency and coincidence. A space for visitors to reflect on the cosmic rhythms all around us, deepening a connection to the cosmic clock that is our earth’s solar journey.

The artwork is a part of a collection of work that has been created for the annual event SOLSTICE: Reflections on Winter Light at Mount Auburn Cemetery.
