Details
This sculpture by artist group Glassitorium pours the foundation for the NEON District with light and reflection. The cement mixer is the housing and viewing tool as a direct reference to all of the new construction and renovations happening in the area. The internal kaleidoscope is the perfect device to mix and reconstruct reality in dazzling ways. Viewers interact with Cementiscope and are struck by the dichotomy of the concrete drum’s grounded heaviness and the kaleidoscope’s lightness, which is focused upward reflecting infinite possibilities.
