WOW! What a great weekend. So fun to have this project come to life and share it with Cincinnati. All of the flying pigs are SOLD OUT!
What a cool festival, this was my first BLINK and it really delivered as an amazing experience.
Details of the light installation
Drawing inspiration from Cincinnati's beloved symbol, when Pigs Fly is a custom light art installation created for Blink Cincinnati 2024. It imagines a drift of flying pigs migrating through Piatt Park in downtown Cincinnati. Each pig is cast in translucent resin, with feather wings, and internal illumination.Come check it out in person October 17-20th, 2024.

Pigs are SOLD OUT, but contact me if you still want to find a way to have a piece of this experience live on with you in your home. There are a few pieces left that are not a part of the certified series made I can make available.I am also taking requests for future festivals or other large runs of sculptural lighting installations to enhance spaces in public and commercial spaces.
