Artist Reception: Thursday, September 17th, 6 - 8 pm
Eye of the Storm is a multi-channel video installation that references the shape of a hurricane eye. Viewers can navigate the various curved forms and enter the 10 foot tall, 20 foot diameter, inverted conical shape. Within the hurricane eye it is calm, but we can contemplate the immense scale and danger that lies beyond what we can see.
