Description

Kenneth Emig, a local visual and performance artist, created three framed artworks located in the rotunda. The artwork generates the illusion of expanding the architectural space through multiple reflections. The artist hopes to stimulate your curiosity, encouraging you to look at the world in new ways, with new awareness. This commissioned artwork incorporates the architect's vision for the building, recognizing the area's rural and 'high tech' communities in the design and choice of materials. Emig's visual art investigations of optical, acoustic and motion concepts are inspired by his performance art and his work in 'high tech' research and development.
