1984 -1985
Installed at the Chesterwood Museum in Stockbridge Mass. and The ZONE Art Center, Springfield Mass.
Commemorating the Anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima. Six 9ft. fans, each made from Approx. 40 steel rods woven together then covered with a taunt, primary-colored, mesh netting over the surface, to create the shape of the fan.
As viewers moved about the field and changed perspective, different primary colors would interact to create different secondary and tertiary colors.
The fans were used as props in a video performance wherein, on a white stage-set, animated figures operated props and elements to change the color dynamics, finally ending with the figures exploding a black netting over the entire stage, signifying the destruction caused by the bombing.
