Art in the Alley: Watering Hole

Watering Hole by Spectacle Create and Capture

Watering Hole acts as a gathering space that attracts the viewer from afar wtih the feeling of a distant mirage. Up close, a low audio rumble vibrates the water contained in the sculpture to create moving patterns - this water ripple is reflected on the walls of the alley generating a shimmering shadowscape.

Spectacle Create & Capture designs atmospheres to be interacted with and explored. From galleries, to events, or on camera, Spectacle enhances and distorts reality with use of lighting, projection, sound, or technology of any kind. With roots in research and development, designers and technicians come together to realize concepts of a client and bring new ideas to the table. Whether it is a performance or public space, the viewer is pulled into the experience and taken on a journey. Simple lighting design of a space can evoke movement and direct attention of an audience. But when the viewer is involved in the manipulation of a space, the design becomes alive and takes on a new personality. Interactive components of an atmosphere can be high-tech computer integration, or as simple as providing a canvas to create a shadow. The reactions can be just as powerful. When elements of lighting, projection, and sound come together, there is an endless supply of immersive experiences to be created.
