Description: Crafted by the artist collective Glassitorium, this sculpture lays the cornerstone for the NEON District through its interplay of light and reflection. Taking the form of a cement mixer, it serves as both a housing and an observation instrument, serving as a direct nod to the ongoing surge of new construction and rejuvenation in the vicinity. The internal kaleidoscope acts as a fitting tool for merging and reshaping reality in mesmerizing manners. Engaging with Cementiscope, viewers experience the striking contrast between the grounded weight of the concrete drum and the ethereal quality of the kaleidoscope, which channels its focus upwards, casting forth boundless possibilities through reflection.
