Solis is an interactive installation that allows users to manipulate light in a playful way. The piece rotates and spins upon itself like a gyro scope that enables one to create a new piece of art every time they engage with the work. This permanent sculpture creates not only an iconic landmark for the space in which it is located but also allows the users to connect to the landscape in which it resides. The project was designed to allow the community to manipulate the environment around them through the reflecting and refracting of light with the installation.
Not only does the changing environment around the piece allow for an ever-changing installation, but the user can also manipulate the piece in a variety of ways creating endless possibilities. This moment of open-ended play creates a timeless landmark within the landscape it is placed. At night the piece illuminates and glows as a beacon within this Suwanee, GA, community.
