How this work was made and presented

Studio artwork description

Motion activates both music and light

Amigo & Amigo describes each moving bell as triggering a light-and-sound response and credits OTIS for the composition. The page publishes 16 square metres without clarifying whether this covers one bell or a group. A buyer should establish the number of elements, movement envelope and interaction method before using that figure in a layout. Current availability is unconfirmed.

Beacon Park, Detroit, winter 2021–22

Five bells programmed for a downtown park

The DTE-backed Beacon Park event account describes five Swinging Bells in Detroit during winter 2021–22. Downtown Detroit Partnership curated and programmed the temporary installation, with sponsorship from DTE Beacon Park Foundation. The presentation combined a specific artwork configuration with a local operating organization and sponsor, a useful model for a municipality or downtown district planning recurring seasonal art.
