Description: Artists Abby Butler and John-Mark Collins will create a multimedia experience that explores themes of relationships and isolation. Passerby encounter Olvindi and Peyo, two lonely souls yearning for attachment. Their bodies are composed of physical materials, yet their souls are reflected through light and animated mapped projections. What is their story? What is our own? How will our concurrent journeys coincide and combine? Will we find joy? Rather than reflecting any particular identity or viewpoint, the installation focuses on the universal experience of connection. It's meant to be encountered by anyone, in whatever way feels true to them.
