Valley Hi Library: "Migration": The installation is finished

http://valleyhilibrary.blogspot.com/2009/08/installation-is-finished.html

Valley Hi Library: "Migration". Friday, August 28, 2009. The installation is finished. Michael Strange from the Sacramento Library arrived with his camera to take some pictures. Chris Noll, the talented architect on the project was visiting. After many months of design, research, fabrication and installation, "Migration" is complete. If you are still you can see the butterflies move. The more still you are, the more you can see them move. Cast shadows on the walls are subtle but enchanting.

Valley Hi Library: "Migration": 10/17/09

http://valleyhilibrary.blogspot.com/2009_10_17_archive.html

Valley Hi Library: "Migration". Saturday, October 17, 2009. Further, even before it's completion, my friend Kathy Rushford, a thirty-year veteran of a middle school, and I had decided that the subject was so rich that we had to pursue creating a book. There are other books, but we have something unique in mind. Not cute, but scary and challenging and targeting teens. And now that I've had time to reflect, I'm very much intrigued with the concept of the Butterfly Effect. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Valley Hi Library: "Migration". Tuesday, August 4, 2009. Phase 3: Attaching the butterflies- day 8 and 9. The story of the migration of the Monarchs is becoming more compelling to me. My natural curiosity has been accelerating. I've bought two books, "Chasing Monarchs," by Robert Michael Pyle and "Four Wings and a Prayer," by Sue Halpern. It was even difficult deciding which to start with so I picked up the former and was so mesmerized by the first paragraph that I couldn't put it down.

Valley Hi Library: "Migration": A kaleidoscope of butterflies- day 10-16

http://valleyhilibrary.blogspot.com/2009/08/kaleidoscope-of-butterflies.html

Valley Hi Library: "Migration". Sunday, August 16, 2009. A kaleidoscope of butterflies- day 10-16. A group of butterflies is called a swarm or a rabble or even sometimes, a kaleidoscope which I prefer. A visit from a young friend. My buddy George Hauptman joined me again last Friday. He's 6'6" and can reach areas that I can't reach. I've known him for years and it's great to spend some time with him. He's a very gentle person and so good with butterflies.

Valley Hi Library: "Migration": Phase 3: Attaching the butterflies- day 1-7

http://valleyhilibrary.blogspot.com/2009/08/phase-3-attaching-butterflies-monday.html

Valley Hi Library: "Migration". Monday, August 3, 2009. Phase 3: Attaching the butterflies- day 1-7. On Tuesday, July 28th, I climbed up to my new home. The main cables are ready and more will be installed as the piece progresses. It's not possible to plan ahead as the whole process is very spontaneous. It was slightly overwhelming to look at this empty space and try to visualize how it's going to look at the end of one week, then another week and yet another. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Valley Hi Library: "Migration". Sunday, August 2, 2009. Phase 1: Design, concept and preparation. A new City of Sacramento library near Cosumnes River College is currently. Under construction, with a commitment to LEED certification. I was awarded a wonderful and very unique space, a children's reading room which also functions as part of the ventilation system. It's an amazing opportunity for me to create an entire installation. I'm. Http:/ www.saclibrary.org/new projects/valleyhi.html. If you have the ...
