3D Art Installation at Pow Wow Festival with DANCEHALL

RJWA collaborated with DANCEHALL on a 3D art installation for the 311 Pow Wow Festival at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park & Campground in Live Oak, Fl. The structures were inspired by traditional forms of Native American architecture of Florida. They served as shading devices during the day but when evening hit and the music got going was when the fun began. The artist, Justin Wood, founder of DANCEHALL, projected live videos that moved along with the music. The overall reaction was fantastic as another area of the venue was activated by these living art totems. We have been invited back to participate next year and hope to bring more of this living art to a venue near you!
