Today was Tomorrow Yesterday is an immersive installation, composed of projected images of cast glass sculptures floating in a sterile and somewhat familiar environment landing on all four walls and the ceiling of the gallery. The projections distort and expand the perceived architecture of the physical space. On entering, visitors merge with the artwork. They momentary become artists simply by entering and being absorbed by the artwork. They make changes as they move about the space, interfere with the projected images, and cast multiples of their own moving shadows. Tall bronze sculptures are centered within arm’s reach and respond to touch with subtle movement and multiple shadows. The projectors, iPads, media players, extension cords are an integral part of the installation, referring to today’s unavoidable digital realities. All elements of the installation operate as a metaphor for our experience with time and space to create the idea of future as a distinct, new, and improved version of the past. The work creates an introspective space to consider the fluid interplay between past experiences and the future that happens while we are distracted by competing beams of light filled with flickering images. 2024 installation included nine projectors, five mini iPads, and four media players.
