What the project record tells us
2021 climate-futures installation and Honoraria record
Climate futures as a walkable comparison
The Prism of Possibilities organizes a climate narrative around a steel zome covered with triangular dichroic panels. Three surrounding dwellings represent different futures through contrasting construction: reflective metal and plexiglass, reclaimed pallets, and junkyard materials. Writing and audio furnish those scenarios with everyday detail. In Theory Art Studios records a 2021 Burning Man Honoraria award and a 60-by-40-foot footprint. For a comparable interpretive environment, how would the site connect the three stories while giving visitors room to pause and compare them?

2019 sculpture with documented touring presentations
A heart built from small reflective elements
Koro Loko was first created for Burning Man in 2019; the studio also records presentations in Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, Houston and Napa. Thousands of dichroic acrylic squares are joined with copper and clear line around a welded steel and PVC frame, producing the billowing heart. A reflective steel pedestal and external spotlights complete the assembly. The useful planning question is how daylight, nighttime lighting and viewing distance would each change the reading of this layered, partially transparent surface.

2021 Salt Lake City sculpture
A wishing star with separate lighting
The studio dates Miri to 2021 and identifies Salt Lake City as its setting. Its crystalline star combines dichroic acrylic with a welded steel frame, supported by a rectangular steel pedestal with reflective panels. The listed dimensions are eleven feet long, four feet wide and nine feet high; external spotlights provide illumination. The invitation to make a wish gives the geometry a participatory meaning without an electronic interface. Where would people gather around a similar work, and how would the lighting reach every important face?
