Lens
A Performed Installation by Dwayne Bohuslav and Joanne Brigham
Luminaria: Arts Night in San Antonio, TX 2008
LENS was a site-specific performed installation located in Peacock Alley just east of Broadway Street in downtown San Antonio.
LENS hanged vertically from the fire stair and above Peacock Alley between the World Trade Center Building at 118 Broadway Street and the adjacent building to the south.
LENS, a 32-foot diameter aluminum ring, selectively re-focused a delicately balanced axis revealing a suspended string grid: a three-dimensional map and drawing through space.
LENS began with the installation lifted into place above the alley and attached to the fire stair railing. As the evening progressed sound and light activated the performed installation until midnight.
LENS is a work by an ongoing collaboration between Dwayne Bohuslav and Joanne Brigham that explores the interplay of the body, natural materials, technology and space.
LENS was part of the San Antonio city-wide Luminaria: Arts Night in San Antonio on Saturday March 15, 2008.
