Description

DIFFUSION

Artists: David Estes and John-Mark Collins

Location: Inside the 505 Central Food Hall, 505 Central Ave NW, Albuquerque, NM 87102

DIFFUSION combines the carefully balanced sculptural mobile making expertise of David Estes with the technical wizardry of John-Mark Collins. Translucent ellipsoid discs hang and spin in constant motion in this large site-specific mobile installation.  DIFFUSION will accentuate the interplay of digital and physical, highlighting depth, balance, movement and form of the physical structure and its augmented digital counterpart.

By day the beautiful undulating form of the sculpture itself is highlighted. At night, the mapped projections and precisely beamed lights create depth at the point of digital and physical intersection, transforming the sculpture into an ever-changing visual spectacle.

At night, the structure becomes more than just a sum of its parts by the synergistic interplay of digital and physical, creating a wholly new piece after the sun goes down.

Activation: The installation will be visible day and night February - March 2025, with projections each evening (6 to 9 p.m. Sunday - Thursday and 6 to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday).
