Description: A vertical installation of colored glass circles fused onto glass panels. The glass panels are integrated into the book drop at the plaza entry to the branch. There are two visual layers that make up this work, the first being abstracting “drawing” in the glass that illustrates the general concept of language and the second a visual calligraphic abstraction of language. Conceptually, the piece refers to the collection, digestion and dissemination of knowledge that occurs daily at the library.
Artist Statement: I enjoy enhancing environments by highlighting the energy of a place—pulling viewers around a corner or across a street, inviting them to look at space in a new way and creating relationships between interiors and exteriors, between our bodies and our environment, between our unique sense of self and out interconnectedness with all.
