Topsy-Turvy: A Camera Obscure Installation
EXPIRED

Free admission (all visitors, all hours)
“Topsy-Turvy” reimagines one of the world’s oldest moving image devices into a life-sized 10-foot by 10-foot structure. Park visitors will be able to enter the interactive, large-scale installation, which will utilize the physical properties of light to capture images of the surrounding Flatiron District in real time. This centuries-old artistic medium will alter how visitors experience the park and engage with the various elements of New York City’s urban landscape through a new and exciting lens. For this Mad. Sq. Art commission, New York-based artists Sandra Gibson and Luis Recoder turned to their shared interest in cinema, drawing upon and manipulating basic elements of projected light and shadow in order to articulate space and time, as well as explore their most fundamental optical and formal qualities.
