Earthtime Series

"Earthtime 1.26" is a 230-foot (70 m) aerial sculpture originally created for the City of Denver's Biennial of the Americas celebration in July 2010.

This resulted in a lightweight, low-impact design which could be temporarily attached to existing architectural structures, and also allowed the sculpture to better respond to the wind.

It was created for the reopening of the Renwick Gallery in Washington, D.C. after a two-year renovation and the goal to make a more interactive space.
