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 Sea Urchin is a massive sculpture of a sea urchin with spines that light up at night. Abram Santa Cruz was inspired to make this art sculpture as a result of being a dive volunteer at the Aquarium. His dedication toward ocean sustainability and the preservation of sea animals inspired him to create the sculpture and pursue a degree in Environmental Science. The sculpture was originally displayed at Burning Man in 2015 and won a Global Arts Grant Honoraria the following year.

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.
