Public space temporary installation at the Albany Bulb, 2019
(from press release)
These bendable, interactive sculptures are symbols of the resilience of human condition in the face of adversity. As part of nature, we can resist, regrow and reshape.
Bulbfest 2019 is a two-day festival that will highlight the ruggedly beautiful landscapes of the Albany Bulb with dance performances and new art installations.
The Albany Bulb is a city park at a former construction debris landfill surrounded by spectacular views of San Francisco Bay. The Albany Bulb has long been known for informal sculpture and art. Love the Bulb, a community arts organization is presenting this festival to highlight the value of this endangered and uniquely Bay Area space for the imagination.
The theme of the festival this year is Resilience. The performances and art installations will explore the resilience of nature in the face of climate change and sea level rise as well as human resilience in the face of individual and societal changes. The works have been selected through an open call process, with the help of a jury consisting of local professionals in the fields of arts, education, activism and urban design.
