Human Kaleidoscope Art Installation in Times Square - (Definitely Check This Out!)

Re-Post Of StudioVox Crew - October 18th, 2016

Because I love this site and love what they do and are doing with spreading the word around of amazing artist in so many forms I am glad to have the opportunity to be able to re-post there daily post that I get from them straight in to my gmail.  Lucky me and lucky you since now I am posting them here.

No this is not some lame way for me in skating by and taking it easy in creating new post just for my blog here................ or is it.........  OK, maybe a little but really, for at least a couple of weeks now I have been wanting to figure out how to save all the wonderful emails I do get from them on a daily basis and only wish I had been doing it sooner but glad I am doing it now.

So I will probably be posting these past paragraphs for a little bit until I feel it is necessary not to do so and a link to StudioVox's site as you see below.


The StudioVox Crew
Starting this week you have the opportunity to enter The Beginning of the End in New York's Time Square. (And no, it doesn't have anything to do with the current U.S. Presidential election:)
It's a mirrored sculpture that allows visitors to experience Times Square upside down.  Cuban painter and installation artist Rachel Valdés Camejo plays with this multiplier of images in her new public installation, The Beginning of the End, a human kaleidoscope, unveiled Tuesday, October 18.
A collaboration between Time Square Arts and the Cuban Artists Fund, it’s Camejo’s first solo show in the United States. To construct the installation, the artist created a corridor of three mirrored surfaces—two angled walls and a floor. On the floor, the Manhattan view of the sky is reflected, while on the walls a the Time Square environment, with all of its structures and lights, gets multiplied, becoming interactive in the process.
Sherry Dobbin, Director of Times Square Arts, says “This work pulls in the sky to draw it underneath your feet, wrapping Times Square completely around your body. The natural skyscape, the electronic billboards and the office buildings combine in a human kaleidoscope, in which each twist of your body brings about new perspectives.”
The Beginning of the End, a human kaleidoscope in Times Square, runs through November 21, 2016Click here for more information and here to see more of Rachel Valdés Camejo’s work.
