Planning an Instillation
From my entry into broad street the topic of an art installation to mark the ramp up the the organizations art department. Our goal was to create an instillation that would allow those who look upon it to understand our guest in a deeper way. Many who come through the doors of Broad street Ministry are judged, misunderstood, and left to denied as individuals of worth.
Inspired by Ingo Maurer’s Zettel Chandelier. The light fixture consists of illuminated notes, poems, and quotes suspended from a single tubular light source. I wanted to create in instillation that could shine a light on the thought, goals, dreams, and prayers of the our guest and volunteers that come through the doors of Broad street Ministry. Brenna the therapeutic Arts coordinator suggested presenting these notes from our guest in the form a a tree. Trees are a representation of life and long lasting strength. Broad Street Ministry is the tree to which these thoughts and prayers are connected too. Lights would illuminate the notes creating a whimsical piece.
