Spectrum of Time by Peter Erskine is a permanent rainbow sundial calendar installation. Hour and month lines painted on the walls and floor of the 40’ X 40’ X 40’ industrial museum space mark the hours, summer and winter solstices, and the spring and autumn equinoxes with astronomical accuracy. A 30’ X 30’ cross of solar spectrum light powered by the rotation and tilt of the earth tells the time and date. On cloudy days a laser pointer driven by a solar tracking program fills in for the rainbow.

Studio Visit with Sam Jaffe
Sam is so well-spoken about her work. Fabrics, even the most synthetic ones, can tell a story—something that Sam explores in her work. Her pieces take the domestic practice of sewing and chrocheting and gives it new meaning by repurposing them into colorful, weird, and almost eerie 3-D sculptures. I am in love with this!!!!!
