HVCCA will present an installation of illuminated paintings by Peter Bynum, with an additional multi-media component of soundscapes and video projections.
Purple velvet drapes at the entrance signal the immersive spiritual experience to come. Upon entering, sacred music creates an environmental soundscape. The room glows with six paintings full of cosmic energy and ecstatic beauty, advancing our contemplation of the divine as well as the human threat to the biosphere.
A separate curtained booth allows visitors to sit and watch video projections of paint in action, showing its behavior under pressure as it flows and branches, a psychedelic experience of life forming and flowing before our eyes. In another booth, viewers can sit in privacy to contemplate the painting “Between us, here, now,” a work that invites us to explore our relation with the Other, whether human or divine.
