A_C_N Celebration

In 2005 I won a contest for a public sculpture/commission in the campus of Twente University.
In one year time, I made 3 proposals. The project was not realized in the end, and my 3rd proposal is called *Celebration

*Celebration is an old-fashion-look sculpture that was conceived in the postmodernism time.

In below this sculpture is represented by text & music.

With energy of craziness, with power of innocence, in an utopia of complex.

There was once a celebration for Birth, Love, Life & Nothingness
The 4 issues are referring to 4 teardrops oozed from 4 diamond trees.

The imaginary elements: Paradise, a floating island / Atmosphere, Buddhism cosmos / Boundless / Life: Animals, plants, princess, ribbon, tree, diamond, teardrops / Pure, purity, transparency

Description: A frozen fountain, 4 diamond trees. White, smooth surface made by white marble, steel, glass and mosaic.

Blazon elements: black diamond, flying white ribbons, teardrops. The ribbons are made from metal and stone, fly into space, with sharp and powerful movement.

Music: Floating in to the night – Julee cruise / Kantamoinen – Mika Vaino / Crazy English Summer - Luck / Among My Swan – Mazzy Star / Alice in wonderland – Randy Greif / Pergolesi. Stabat Mater. Salve Regina / The Doors – The Doors / The Music From Matthew Barney's Drawing Restraint 9 – Bjork / The Light At The End Of The Tunnel Is A Train – Whitney / Klaus Nomi – Klaus Nomi / Tracks from The People Like Us / Selected Tracks from Felix Kubin

With energy of craziness, with power of innocence, in an utopia of complex.
