Zeus playing

Antonio Barrese - 2007
Installation with sparks hanging from a ceiling, activated by the visitor by pulling a rope.
It’s the environment-size version of Electric Grass.
Like its smaller prototype it emits a cloud of sparks when the metal rods oscillates, thus collide, due the action done by the visitor.

Materials: layered plywood with caps in anodized aluminium, metal rods (steel, copper, brass, aluminium), 220/12V transformers.
Size: 270 x 180 x 20 cm.
