Esprit Park Open Skies

Category: Open Skies Parks & Projects

Artist: Jason Robert Bell
Project: The Twilight World

The Twilight World combines Jason's Trashsures series (sculptural lost objects, designed to be discovered by chance) with his ongoing interest in metaphysics, esoteric images, folklore, and mythology.

People of all ages are invited to delight in the gentle transformation of public space -- where adventure, chance, and the spirit of fantasy are aglow.

Part Halloween folklore, part Trickster tale, part Celtic Phooka mythology -- fantastical, archetypal, or symbolic creatures and humans abound, with a fanciful checklist for visitors to discover their whereabouts -- or be discovered themselves.

Meet the wizardly, enigmatic "Old Man", modeled after Emperor Norton, who surveys the park -- offering visitors formal citizenship of this fantastic kingdom!

Join Jason Robert Bell, as he blurs the lines between waking reality, sculptural oddysey, and a twilight daydream!
