Mist Wave 2012

MISTWAVE TO SUMMER

AT CEDAR GROVE BEACH,

STATEN ISLAND, NY

After the successful Exhibition of MistWave by the Artists Andrea Padilla and Stanley Harris last summer at the Figment NYC 2011 Art Festival on Governors Island, MistWave has a new summer home. Through the New York Parks and Recreation Departments Public Art Program, MistWave will be exhibited all summer, from Memorial day weekend, May 28, 2012 through Labor Day weekend, September 3, 2012 at Cedar Grove Beach, Staten Island

MistWave is an interactive public art installation inspired by Under the Wave off Kanagawa of Hokusai’s print, “The Great Wave”. Constructed of Recycled scaffolding materials with Mist emanating from curved pipes as fractals. MistWave represents the vascular system of a wave. Through line and form, MistWave transitions a static sculpture into a vehicle of poetic expression that contrasts the fragility of human life with the power of nature.

Come enjoy one of New York’s most beautiful beaches this summer. Play, relax, and have fun in the cooling mists of Mistwave

We’ll soon be announcing specifics about a Party/Event celebrating MistWave’s new home… watch for it!!! This WILL be FUN

Hope to see you there,

Stanley and Andrea

Special thanks to Joe Covello and United Hoisting &Scaffolding Corp. without who’s help MistWave may not have come to be… Thank You!!!
