IMPACTS Category : Arts Date / Period : June 14 to October 21, 2012 BOOKMARK Telephone: 514 225-0525 Toll-free: 1 855 526-8888 Reservation: E-mail: info@phi-centre.com URL: http://www.phi-centre.com Overview Overview Tesla coils each fitted with a glass pane and suspended from the ceiling of the exhibition space make up the components of this “live” sculptural installation. The presence of the visitor before each sculptural device activates an audio and visual experience. The visitor’s proximity to the works engages arcs of electricity of variable intensities as well as a rhythmic articulation, generated by the impact of the electrical arc on the glass pane. As a symbolic and sonic source, the Tesla coil’s ability to throw electric arcs has been employed by a wide spectrum of artists.
