The Wedding Krewe hosted a New Year Restart lunch & learn with a focus on getting organized. They asked me to transform the foyer at The Cannery so I wanted to create an experience using music and lighting as well as the visuals of the installation itself. When guests walked into the space it was meant to be overwhelming with flashing lights & hectic music. The crumpled paper, Post-It notes, book pages, giant To Do list & other elements represented the clutter of our everyday lives. A mannequin head symbolized our cluttered minds seeping out into our cluttered environments.
When we were ready for the event to begin, passed drinks & hors d’oeuvres ended & the curtains to the ballroom were opened as the music suddenly quieted. Guests walked into the ballroom amid peaceful music into a stark white room with ghost chairs & empty vases as centerpieces to cleanse the palate as we prepared to refresh our minds for the new year & get organized.
