The Serpent Mother challenges the traditional art perspective by creating an interactive experience, giving permission to move beyond passive viewing. Her skeletal spine of 92 vertebrae runs 168′, finishings coiled around her egg. Her arching spine and 41 participant activated flame effects create a space like no other while her hydraulically actuated head and jaws chomp at the sky. Her egg occasionally opens, giving birth to 40′ plumes of colored fire, shooting into the sky in a fantastic display.
