Context and Brief

BLINK is a biennial celebration of public art and light in the urban core of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. We were selected to be one of the featured artists for its fourth edition, from October 17th to October 20th, 2024.

The project pitch was reviewed by a Curatorial Advisory Committee and the BLINK production team, represented by leaders of AGAR, Cincy Nice, Ish Festival, and the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber.

The proposed visual themes were selected as a great fit for Cincinnati’s historic American Building.

Approach

When we dream, our mind becomes the artist and problem solver, taking us on a surreal journey through dreamscapes formed from our experiences to solve and heal our emotions. The American Building plays host to our mind, transforming into vibrant collage dreamscapes that mechanically shift and cycle through worlds to connect the pieces and resolve our inner challenges.

This art installation illustrates the pure creativity of our dreams and invites viewers to explore their own experiences.
