About this event
As the TEDxSalem Artist-in-Residence, Cayla Skillin-Brauchle is asking the
question: how do we create an environment where we experience multiple perspectives? Can the visual experience of seeing the same thing from different viewpoints create space in our brains to also entertain different truths?
To visually present this question she is creating an installation out of large, fabric pillars. This installation will be built in the Annex at the Bush Barn Art Center, and displayed as the backdrop for the TEDxSalem event on Saturday, January 6. Blue fabric in the center of the installation will reference a looking glass, seemingly clear and crisp. As the audience moves around the room during the event, they will experience kaleidoscopic shifts in color and texture. Throughout the day, Cayla will encourage audience members to sit in different spots and see this installation from different angles, testing her hypothesis: do ideas affect us differently when they are framed differently?
