Compound Long Beach will host a fundraising event May 7, to support José Andrés’ World Central Kitchen or WCK and their efforts to provide sustenance to those affected by the war in Ukraine with a Ukrainian-inspired Chromasonic immersive art installation.
The fundraising event, created in partnership with Chromasonic, features an immersive light and sound sequence experience inspired by the Ukrainian flag. The sequence, which will precede each cycle of Chromasonic’s in-situ installation Field Study on view at
Compound, draws attention to the tragedy in Ukraine while paying homage to the human spirit. Field Study is composed of repeated translucent scrims laid out to create a series of rooms and interstitial spaces.The installation uses “Chromasonic Refrequencing,” a real-time translation of light frequencies to sound, and sound frequencies to light, in effect making light audible or sound visible.
Join this special event featuring music from DJ Olive Kimoto, appetizers and sweets from beloved local eatery Wide Eyes Open Palms, beer and wine by Compound, and the opportunity to hear directly from Chromasonic and WCK. 100% of proceeds benefit World Central Kitchen.
Chaos to Cosmos exhibit, the second installation at Compound, features artists addressing nature and beauty, working on the creation of visual systems, order and iconography to address the mysteries of the universe, seeking to represent the inexplicable.
Anna Sew Hoy’s Slow Moon’s Rose sculpture garden features ceramic works composed of stoneware and mirrors.
