Sun Chimes

Brian Holcombe

Sun Chimes is a modulating light installation taking from ideas of opposition in Chinese philosophy and the perceived motivation of Minimal Art as a reactionary art movement. Sun Chimes offers a visual opposition to the night. The vertical acrylic tubes hang parallel in a circle floating above the ground. The structure resembles a wind chime, a familiar device used to connect people to nature through sound and movement. Sun Chimes connects through light; the tubes modulate the colors of the sun from sunrise to sunset
