- Biographical Information
- "This piece (as with every sit specific work) is a response to a complex of factors: the physical site (limitations and opportunities it offers); ideas, orientation, and capacities of the artist; and finally provisions of the commission agreement, though vital and challenging to the process of producing the artwork such matters are irrelevant to 'seeing' the piece. I believe that 'seeing' is entirely a matter of what a viewer brings to the piece in terms of open-mindedness and personal experience. The piece may then extend from itself containment and a connection result between it and the viewer. Such is sometimes the case and sometimes not, but a statement by me would not further a naturally formed connection. To answer a technical question: light comes from 'L.E.D.s' (light emitting diodes) and the entire piece consumes about 150 watts in continuous service - so it meets a self imposed criteria of high efficiency, low power, and virtually unlimited life without maintenance." Teneau, 1991
