Northeast Medical Center

Slide of Spheres, 2006

620 x 250 cm

North East Medical Center, North Carolina

This installation is part of the live-in environment for young people undergoing medical treatment. The work is intended to infuse the space with optimism and playfulness and encourage engagement. The colours reflect a child's sensibility - colours children naturally use and are attracted to when drawing and making art.

It was a great opportunity to incorporate our work into a social context. Passing through two floors of an enclosed atrium are 160 blown spheres twenty feet high and eight foot wide.
