Reflexion

You hold the power to control the art in an installation that is a meditation on the competing, distorting and clarifying roles played by lenses and frames in contemporary life. By manipulating mirrored columns of individually rotatable prisms with nighttime custom lighting animations created by San Diego-based collective ArtBuilds, audience members can shift perspectives, interact with the environment and each other, and discover something new.

Artist

ArtBuilds was founded in 2019 and is a collective of artists who traverse traditional disciplinary boundaries with a passion to cultivate community through expansive participatory art installations. The collective is 100% volunteer run with a focus on the creation of large format sculptures that captivate imagination through play and invite action through interactivity. They have created a 12’ tall sundial with interchangeable disks (About Time), a 60’ long and 20’ tall series of climbable hexagonal gates (Re:Emergence), and a steel unfolding dodecahedron covered in 17,000 LEDs (Unfolding Humanity). ArtBuilds has been commissioned by the City of San Diego, received a grant from the Burning Man Project, and raised funds through public donations.
