Janet Echelman : 1.26

 

Janet’s installation billowed gently over George St, reminding us of our connections to global events and each other.

This unforgettable artwork transformed a busy, hard edged city street into a space for contemplation. Inspired by Chilean tsunami data from NASA, its name reminds us how finely balanced our world is (the earthquake

shifted the earth’s mass, shortening the day by 1.26 microseconds).

Currently, Studio Echelman is sculpting with atomized water in Philadelphia, building a 700 feet interactive light piece for TED’s 30th anniversary, and finalizing the ‘Impatient Optimist’ – a permanent artwork for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in Seattle.
