Warp Detour (sculpture)

Giant wooden installation art work comes to campus

Warp Detour (sculpture)

Warp Detour, a giant 100-foot by 10-foot-tall interactive installation, is now on campus as part of an ongoing exhibit of Cal Lutheran alumni artists. The installation by Grant Toland '06 was built with a coveted grant from the organization behind Burning Man, where it was recently on display.

It is made up of wooden frames positioned so that the whole structure seems to curve or warp as visitors stroll through it. At night, the installation lights up in varying colors to illuminate the path within. Warp Detour is completely self-powered with a photovoltaic cell providing power for the entire night. 

Look for it between Pearson Library and the pedestrian bridge across Olsen Road to the Rolland Gallery. Fun for all ages, and don't forget to come back at night for a whole new experience. It will leave campus Dec. 12, 2014, and the wood will be repurposed, so this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the work before it is destroyed!

Join us at the installation for a closing reception on Dec. 12 from 4 to 6 p.m.
