Kinetic & Interactive Artwork - "Reflections of Austin"

This kinetic Flip-Disc artwork, part of the artist’s Time Capsule series, celebrates the people of Austin by capturing their interactions and making them an integral part of the piece. By preserving brief clips of individuals who engage with the artwork, Reflections of Austin turns everyday moments into a collective memory, reflecting the vibrant and diverse spirit of the city.
The artist meticulously created a black-and-white distressed image of the Austin skyline reflected in the Colorado River, printing it onto nearly 19,000 bi-directional discs.
This artwork not only depicts the iconic skyline but also embodies the dynamic energy of Austin’s people, preserving their interactions as part of the city’s living tapestry. Reflections of Austin honors both the city’s architectural beauty and the individuals who define its character, creating a lasting tribute to their collective experiences.

This one has 3 colors! How do you make the color white? By shimmering a tile back and forth quickly?

We use ink on the discs to create the image on one side. It's still only two-sided.
