Ball-Nogues Studio. Euphony, 2013. Music City Center, Nashville, Tennessee.

Project process: Catenary stainless steel ball chains descent dramatically from a suspended elliptical ring beam and then return skyward on a new path forming two shells of pattern and color. We produced a translucent three-dimensional painting, fabricated with a custom digital cutting machine. Depending on the viewer’s vantage point, the 1141 multi-colored chains of Euphony may appear as a hard-edged geometric form or blur to a vapor-like visual composition. Materials: stainless steel ball chain, steel tube, baked
