Research notes for project planning
What the project record tells us
Reflective sculpture; artist-documented museum presentation
Compound eye/I: reflections that change with distance
Berg's description of Compound eye/I focuses on the relationship between individual and shared reflection. Near the reflective lenses, visitors see themselves centered; stepping back combines their images with those of others. Circling the piece changes the apparent movement of reflected light. The artist's documentation also includes a labeled presentation at the Nevada Discovery Museum in Reno. The evidence supports a work organized around changing viewpoints, while leaving dimensions, detailed construction and any current museum placement unconfirmed.

For your project briefWhere could viewers approach and circle the work, and how would the artist assess daylight, reflected views and surface care at that site?
Big Art Partners planning prompt Black Rock City; reflective steel and spectral-mirror tower
(In)Visible: iridescence experienced through movement
The artist describes (In)Visible as a 20-foot tower made with spectral mirror and steel, documented at Black Rock City. Its surfaces shift between translucency and reflection as people change their viewing angle. Berg links that perceptual change to bodily movement around the work: the audience searches for changing color instead of receiving one fixed view. This makes circulation and ambient light important subjects for a placement conversation. The source does not establish a site's wind design, footing or maintenance regime.

For your project briefWhich viewing routes and daylight conditions would support the work's changing colors, and what engineering and cleaning information is needed for the proposed setting?
Big Art Partners planning prompt Lock Route / Singapore Art Week and National Museum of Singapore
Constellation of One: different versions need different specifications
Berg documents Constellation of One with convex mirrors and several distinct configurations. A wood, acrylic and steel-mirror version is listed separately from an all-steel mirror micro-version commissioned for Lock Route during Singapore Art Week. The same page documents presentation on the National Museum of Singapore's front lawn. These records show both material variation and museum-context placement. A buyer should identify the exact version being discussed rather than transferring the dimensions, materials or installation history of one version to another.
