In our busy, noisy world, our senses have become dulled. Constant distractions, from bright lights to loud noises, have overwhelmed us. "Beacon" rises above this interference and serves as a reminder of the subtler, often ignored beauty that surrounds us. “Beacon” offers a pure and undisturbed experience. It translates natural frequencies into something we can perceive, reminding us of the beauty and tranquility of the world around us. The installation offers a form of "visual medicine for the soul," reconnecting us with our environment and ourselves.
Why Support "Beacon"?
- Community Impact: Bringing "Beacon" to Burning Man and Ventura's Artwalk will enhance the cultural landscape, providing an enriching experience for all attendees.
- Artistic Beauty: The reflective stained glass and illuminated steel structure will create a stunning visual centerpiece, ideal for gardens and artistic venues.
- Innovative Experience: The interactive nature of "Beacon" offers a unique and engaging way to experience the natural world, fostering a deeper connection to our environment.
- Legacy of Art: Supporting this project helps promote and preserve the work of local artists, ensuring that innovative and thought-provoking art remains a vital part of our community.
Call to Action: We invite you to be a part of this transformative project by providing the necessary funding to bring "Beacon" to life. Your support will not only help showcase this incredible installation but also contribute to the enrichment of our community's cultural fabric.
David Oliver's Project "Beacon" has been alive and well since Burning Man '22, where the idea was birthed while cruising the playa. Now he brings "Beacon" from a mental concept to physical form through the actions of.... ALOT of hard labor! And, of course.. money. Project "Beacon" is a self funded project. David has been bouncing back and forth on a commissioned project, and "Beacon's" construction in order to fund it to this point. He has made it pretty far, having almost all the stained glass completed, and a lot of the metal fabrication. However, with the countdown ever increasing until Burning Man '24 he no longer has time to earn money by breaking off onto something else. It's full steam ahead on project "Beacon"! That's what this fundraiser is all about.. the final push. Anything truly does help, 5, 10 or 100 bucks helps move things in the right direction as well as a like or share.
