Each vessel is accessible and the viewer can turn the pieces and touch the water, creating motion.

“The Circumference Project” is an ongoing sound and light performance piece featuring “The Circumference”;  a sculpture/instrument invented by artist Robin Stanaway, in collaboration with invited musicians. This sculpture/instrument is made of huge hand blown glass lenses suspended by stainless steel cables. Vibrations made from striking the glass and strings are amplified and processed while light is projected through the 30+ inch diameter ‘discs’. The projected light generates mesmerizing reflections above and behind the performers. The performers’ shadows become part of that visual imagery.

The Circumference Project has enjoyed various incarnations as Stanaway continues to explore the myriad of possibilities with light, sound, installation, and musical collaborations.
