‘Make a bigger splash!’, a public art installation by Me (Tim Redfern) and Mark Cullen, is a sound responsive 3d drawing in cold cathode light tubing (neon).
Today we had our first chance to see most of the components of the installation together.
- Lining up the main structure
- The installation hangs from here
We just received the 2m diameter steel superstructure for the ceiling-mounted piece, which acts as a hanging platform and also accomodates the 35 1-4kv transformers (which pack quite a bit of weight).
Unpacking the components and checking the platform for size we got the first feeling for the actual scale of the piece realised from drawings, exciting!
Next the wiring..




Nice one Tim!
I am glad the neon transformers arrived OK.
Look forward to seeing the final result!
