SLEA2: Lestat Zalivstok is now building! - Liaison Regi
SLEA3: Gem Preiz's Nausicaa! - Liaison: Dee
Nausicaa - an island of waves and wind
In Homer's Odyssey, Nausicaa is the princess of the Pheaciens, a people of sailors who live on an island "away, in the middle of a rough sea, so far that no mortal has trade with them". She rescues Ulysses stranded on the shore.In Hayao Miyazaki’s animation movie, Nausicaa is the princess of the Valley of the Winds, who glides in the air on her white bird, divine of sincerity and compassion.
Nausicaa is an architectural construction entirely made of curves, evoking waves and wind, and using only prims (*). Intentionally non textured, it contrasts its shining whiteness and minimal use of colors, with the very dark universes filled with colorful lights of the installations of my previous SLEA grant: Lines of Light, Color & Glow, and A Dark Star.
I hope that this world, and the objects and sculptures it contains, provides visitors with a tranquil moment of contemplation, like those inspired by the slow movement of the waves sweeping over the sandy beaches, or by the caress of a sea breeze on the face.
Please enjoy your visit here, under the sky which is integral part of Nausicaa, and listening to the soft music of the stream. (*) however, two complex prims, unstable for viewers in their original settings, had to be saved as collada files and reuploaded in mesh to make their shape stable. SLEA4(SW/NW): Kerupa Flow is now building! - Liaison Regi SLEA4 (SE/NE): Steve Ruhig-Allen's Sarabonde Theater! - Liaison Regi Sarabande offers a rich theatrical experience, with productions ranging from ballet and contemporary dance to musicals and drama.
