Abundant (1983) by Mel Tanner
When I first walked into the original Lumonics Light and Sound Theatre in Miami 51 years ago, Abundant was one of the first light sculptures to catch my eye. It was reworked a couple of times during Mel Tanner’s lifetime, the last time in 1983. I would ask Mel why he would want to change such a wonderful sculpture, and he would say, “That piece always bothered me.”
This happened a few times over the years!
Abundant was taken out of storage one year ago, electrified with LED bulbs, and is prominently placed in the performance space at Lumonics.
You can see Abundant in person on Saturday evenings at Lumonics Immersed.
