Memphis (2024)
Video Light SculptureMemphis consists of a photography backdrop stand, which supports a plain shower curtain. In front of the curtain are four LED light poles on photo stands.
The shower curtain is illuminated by a short-throw rear projection. The LED poles are activated via a daisy-chained DMX cable coming from a Mac Mini running MadMapper (a real-time projection mapping software). This produces an abstracted rendition of the projection in real time onto the light poles, in front of the projection.
Memphis was created for and exhibited at the 2024 Kansas City Art Institute Annual BFA Exhibition: In Assemblage, curated by David Alpert and Kiki Serna, hosted at the Emily & Todd Voth Artspace (formerly H&R Block Artspace), Kansas City, MO
