Night Lily

“Many moons ago, as the ancient ones gathered in the forest to dance in celebration of life, an ethereal flower blossomed. Like a mirage, its petals and tendrils shimmered with light as it bloomed and wilted in an endless cycle, drawing wanderers from near and far to bask in its mystical aura. Within its sparkling mist and captivating glow, strangers became friends as their hearts beat as one. Now, as our ancestors have done for thousands of years before us, we gather in the forest, and the Night Lily blossoms once again.”

—————————————

Originally created to show at the 2017 Electric Forest Festival, the Night Lily is an ethereal kinetic sculpture evocative of the ever-evolving beauty of nature. Through a combination of projection mapping, precision mechanics, textiles, and fluid dynamics, the Night Lily blurs the line between art and technology, appealing to the senses and exciting the imagination.
