BSP: SERPENT MOTHER ART RECEPTION * SATURDAY, 03.07.09
The Flaming Lotus Girls and The Ambient Mafia present:
SERPENT MOTHER ART RECEPTION * SATURDAY, 03.07.09
On Saturday March 7th, the Serpent will light up the Bay in an art opening gala
reception from 7.00PM-midnight.
There has never been a sculpture like the Serpent Mother. . The warmth of her
embrace and her coiling design create an atmospheric space in which over a thousand
people can stand. Her 168’ long stainless steel spine coils around the massive
space, while her 20’ long neck and head tower over her audience. The audience takes
control, however, by directing her movement, raising her hydraulically- actuated
neck and opening her fanged mouth. Full audience participation makes each
installation a singular experience - come make it happen.
This magnificent installation of a 168' skeletal stainless steel snake will be on
display Saturday March 7th, on Treasure Island. We will open the Serpent for a
gallery opening from 7 pm until midnight. We hope you will join us for this fun and
free event.
