Seven Windows is an installation of seven transclucent pieces
in a wall in a converted brick industrial loft building. The wall is positioned
with morning light striking the exterior wall and afternoon light striking
the interior wall so that a wide range of light conditions affect the
pieces. The wall apertures are 7.25 inches deep.
The client is an artist who wanted windows in the wall that
separates her private studio space from a busy artist's cooperative spave.
She needed to allow light into the studio while protecting her privacy
and blocking heat and sound passage. She wanted the wall to appear both
fortress-like and appealing to visitors. The layout of the windows relates
to a series of ascending lofts inside the studio. The imagery relates
to the surrounding architecture and to the interface between public and
private space.
