My New Sculpture Aurora Is A Culmination Of Everything I Have Learned In Over A Decade As A Sculptural Light Artist

ADVERTISEMENT

Aurora is a 32ft light sculpture created for the Little Italy District of San Diego California. The kinetic wind blow outer shell of Aurora is made of hundreds of Polycarbonate panels that are textured to mimic traditional rolled glass and are coated with holographic material called Dichroic. The result is a unique optical effect that changes the reflective color (Bronze> Gold> Green> White) and its transmissive color (Blue> Purple> Magenta> Amber) based on the viewers perspective and orientation of the Sun. On the inside of Aurora are nearly a thousand programmable LED pixels that move and dance in millions of color spectra that are filtered through the Dichroic panels. New LED patterns and features such as Live Music Visualization for Performances, Motion Sensing, and Projection Mapping are planned as Aurora returns each winter season through 2023.

Fantasy and magic have always ruled over my world, from movies to TV shows, to Video Games to tabletop games like Dungeos and Dragons, I try to find magic in every part of my life. Writing is a big part of me too, I hope to publish a fantasy novel one day. I also enjoy playing guitar and singing, as music always help me to get in a great mood. I have an adorable German Shepherd named Hela and we get into all kinds of adventures together.
