Connection Points is a large-scale, public-facing installation of coloured vinyl on the windows of the Art Station building, an arts organisation and charity, which occupies a prominent position on Saxmundham High Street. Inspired by the building's former life as a telephone exchange, a series of curving arcs form colourful wires that weave their way across the window panes - intersecting, overlapping and connecting with the architecture.
The installation combines shapes to create a whole form allowing arcs of colours to imagine the energy of the pulsating circuits in a hub of communications. The colour palette is complementary to the heritage interiors of the building with a choice of meditative and calming colours for its current occupants. At night time when the building is lit from within, it turns the gallery into a light box for all passers-by to observe and enjoy.
This project was made possible with the support of Arts Council England National Lottery Project Grants.
