LED tubes, creating a lighting sequence of flowing and pulsating red and white tubing, both cover the structure and create an immersive environment for viewers who will freely walk underneath and around the work. Visitors who venture into the center of HEDERA will see their own reflection in the cupola above. In the center of the installation, viewers can discover smaller protruding domes—forms that suggest a plant’s central bud. Their reflective shadows will offer images of a flower blooming, of growth and creation. \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Ch4>\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">About the artist \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh4>\r\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Amorós is an interdisciplinary New York-based Peruvian artist who researches the locations, histories and communities of her installation sites to inspire her work, to present an intuitive relationship between her art and its surroundings. Rather than interrupt the natural flow of people and events in the park, HEDERA’s light sequences are meant to reflect and amplify its environment. \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Ch4>\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">About the light art\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh4>\r\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">For its structure, Amorós took inspiration from the form of the Bandshell and the natural beauty and grandeur of the park’s landscape. The sculpture, measuring some 40 ft x 40 ft x 24 ft., will be raised above the lawn by a cone-shaped truss, its dome-like crown enveloping the audience and the surrounding space in luminous light and color. With HEDERA, Amorós wants to bring the viewers closer to an ideal world where individuals can unite in celebration of creativity, nature, diversity and a shared humanity. \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Ch4>\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">BRIC \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh4>\r\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">“I am thrilled to be partnering with the BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn!

For me, HEDERA is a romance with the unknown.” And if HEDERA will be enchanting you and you wish to meet its creator, BRIC is hosting an artist reception with Grimanesa Amorós on Saturday, June 23,
