Crafted under the creative vision of Mathew Rosenblatt and brought to life by the skilled hands of Liquid PXL, Symbolic Peace stands tall at 10 feet, a powerful Peace Sign constructed from steel. Laser-cut with a myriad of meaningful religious and non-religious symbols on both facades, this luminous masterpiece comes to life at night with its brilliant LED light design.

Symbolic Peace draws inspiration from the rich tapestry of diversity woven into our lives and cities. It serves as a poignant representation of individuals and communities coexisting harmoniously, transcending superficial differences. The sculpture's profound aim is to contribute to the transformation of our world into a more beautiful place.

The Nest Stage is an immersive light installation that merges music, geometry, and nature into a unified visual experience.

This LED light tube installation is a modern, modular design and is highly dynamic in its lighting programming.

Electric Dandelions

Introducing our Electric Dandelions: magnificent sculptures crafted from sturdy steel, translucent polycarbonate, and vibrant LEDs. By day, these towering structures captivate with their representation of a dandelion in full bloom. However, as the sun sets, they transform into a breathtaking spectacle—an ever-changing fireworks display that enchants the night.

Standing proudly at 28 feet, these light sculptures boast a captivating and refined lighting design. Their distinctive spherical form is the result of a meticulously crafted geodesic sphere nestled at the core of each Dandelion. From its vertices, forty-one luminous tubes extend, forming a spectacular 15-foot diameter flower. When darkness falls, the geometric wonders truly come alive. The LED animations come to the forefront, casting a spell with their brilliant and dynamic fireworks, ensuring a mesmerizing experience that lasts throughout the night.

Originally unveiled at Burning Man in 2016, the Electric Dandelions have graced light festivals, winter festivals, and music festivals worldwide. Their presence has illuminated events such as Illuminate Adelaide in Australia, Firefly Music Festival in Delaware, and the River of Light winter festival in Liverpool. Join us and experience the magic of these extraordinary sculptures that transcend the boundaries between art and illumination.

The Peace Wall

Our first big art installation took place at Burning Man in 2012. It was the Peace Wall. Most walls are built to seperate people, but the Peace Wall was built to bring people together. The Peace Wall is a half-circle, 50 ft. in diameter and 8 ft. tall. On the 'inside wall', an original painting and design spans the entire 80 foot section made from Multiwall sheets. From the outside the Peace Wall looks like a giant wall of changing color.
