There will be a reception from 6 to 7 pm, followed by an artist talk from 7 to 8 pm. No registration required.

About Lighthouse

Lighthouse is a video art installation that reminds us that we project light into the world for ourselves and each other. As you move through this exhibit, you’ll be surrounded by thousands of colorful strings lining the perimeter of gallery. These soft, polyester strings are illuminated by projections and synchronized to an original soundscape, featuring a 10 minute original art piece.

The strings create a magical atmosphere as they dance with the natural airflow, abstracting the projections and spilling shadows and light around the room. The projected imagery is mostly abstract, featuring slow movement, vibrant colors, nature scenes, and original drawings from Danger, which offer uplifting messages.

This installation naturally invites participation — Viewers are invited to touch, interact, and take photos with the string. There will also be faux fur rugs and floor pillows for lounging and comfortably observing the artwork in a relaxing, inspirational space. 

About The SneakerVangelisT

The SneakerVangelisT, named after Sean Williams’ self-proclaimed moniker in the sneaker world, display an array of digital graphic-based works.

Sneakers are wearable art that serve both self expression and function simultaneously. Some sneaker models offer an ideal canvas for artistic expression, while others make the perfect muse. This exhibit provides examples for both of these roles by showcasing unique “one of one” pieces. Some of sneaker culture’s most iconic and classic models are featured in these works. Each piece is a statement piece that declares a love and appreciation for kicks.
