Two-Billion Candle-Power Searchlight Beacon
Dimensions Variable
A single searchlight beacon broadcast its invitation, transforming the night sky in conjunction with the one-year anniversary of an alternative gallery.
Initially, the high-powered searchlight was developed by the military to find, not invite. After the war, the technology made it way to Hollywood to stand as a metaphor for star power. The use of searchlights became increasingly anti-climatic, pop-culture kitsch used by car dealerships and bars. Come. is a self-referencing transfiguration.
