“The original and ultimate source of all energy on Earth is the Sun,” writes Fred Eversley. Fascinated by solar energy, Eversley experimented with the parabola––a U-shaped curve that concentrates light into a single point. In Big Red Lens, this phenomenon creates a “fish-eye” lens effect that distorts the image seen through the sculpture. With the precision of a scientist, Eversley used light and color to transform how we view our surrounding environment.
