Overview
Resonant Nature celebrates an environment\'s vibratory properties. Albert Einstein stated,
Goals
This site-specific installation was created the Kingsland Wildflowers/ Broadway Stages/ NoOsphere Arts green rooftops. Their program aims to showcase non-intrusive, sustainable artwork that highlights their one-of-a-kind surroundings and encourages reflection on the environment and the mission and vision of the WE ARE NATURE series of the client.
Process
The project was first on display at Kingsland Wildflowers/ Broadway Stages/ NoOsphere Arts complex in Brooklyn, NY. with additional support from the Foundation for Contemporary Art. Seema Lisa Pandya worked closely with the client to minimize any harm to the native wildflowers cultivated on the roof top.
Additional Information
The piece is designed not only to spark the idea that nature vibrates life, but also it frames the site-specific adjacencies. In the background of the piece is the iconic city biodigester eggs where a majority of the city's collected organic waste is turned into compost for the city parks and residents creating and large scale sustainable nutrient cycle. Sims recycling plant is also next door to the site visible from the green rooftop as well as the breathtaking view of the city. The piece in this context emulates the sculpture’s framing of nature as a vibration force echoing patterns of sustainability even in the fast paced harshness of the man-made word.
