The installation uses video motion sensing to track the location and movements of a viewer standing in front of a rear projection screen. This information then alters the story's direction. An artist influenced by a broad range of traditions, from minimalism to the spiritual devices for meditation used in Buddhism and Native American traditions, Helme Prinzen explores and expands her notion of the mandala. A free public reception will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. on March 19. Encoded in each layer are messages of traditional African patterns and symbols.
