Centaur

 

Centaur combines the body of a horse with the head and torso of a man. Standing more than 25′ tall, the man portion is able to swivel and will be aiming an arrow towards the sun. As day progresses, he tracks the sun and stores energy, fueling light and sound effects. Steps can be incorporated into the horse’s leg(s) so that people can climb the horse. The materials will be steel, stainless steel, redwood and recycled materials as much as possible. Internal LED lighting will bring to life the negative spaces and interior passages of the sculpture at night. There will be an interface that will allow Google to define color schemes for holidays, special events, etc. A dynamic light show will be driven the “Unintentional Garden” web network of sound devices so that light and sound will work together creating an immersive experience.
