Cardinal Gates

About

Cardinal Gates explores the passage of time and how life is made up of fleeting, ever-changing moments. Our piece honors the cardinal directions and the sundials before them that have guided explorers for thousands of years. We are all explorers finding our way. The gates are a pop of saturated color in the playa landscape. Up close, during the day, they create a moving story of shadows capturing time. The flags are custom-dyed in vibrant colors inspired by the sky, representing our personal mythology of the directions. You can find your way following each of the four cardinal directions - North, East, South, or West. The flags & benches are made out of upcycled, reprinted convention banner fabrics and metal poles.
