Artist: Koryn Rolstad
Location: Florida Station 1490 S. Abilene St., Aurora, CO 80012
Description:
“My main focus for Our Community Dance is to form an interactive language that is joyful, accessible, and acts as a visual identity that also changes throughout the day and seasons,” says Rolstad. “I wanted the story of ‘movement’ formed by all types of citizens, community activities, medical personnel, and native animals, which populate this diverse area and represent the Colorado culture. I want to provide an environment that surrounds the moving population, to and from their destination, to be immersed by a visual story of their unique neighborhood and state.
