Sky Spirals is an art and science project envisioned in multiple sites and scales as well as conceptual investigations.
The project aims to:
- To promote awareness of the universe and astronomical events, where art as a vehicle to live in harmony with the environment.
- To create a better understanding of the relationship between man and the natural environment by shaping the land with patterns of crops and natural vegetation to recreate the native ecologies and habitat.
- To define a place where the interaction with Nature becomes a source of healing inspiring spiritual practises.
- To reclaim the lost connection with the universe as a path to a sustainable environment, by establishing "energy fields".
- To experiment with digital fabrications and new materials through integration of information based infrastructure in the landscape.
The first tectonic expressions of Sky Spirals --sundials, observatories and other land sculptural earthworks-- are currently in construction
in Sun Farm, a 60-acre property in Columbia County (NY).
