Light Wings will be a 20,000 square foot project made up of small fabric strips vertically suspended directly over approximately 80% of the main seating area, serving as a dynamic piece of art that provides improved sunshade for fans while also providing the backdrop for a nightly light show for fans to enjoy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Mallards and Night Mares are collaborating with local artist, Adrian Pere, to complete the project. Light Wings will move with the wind to provide an ever-changing, flowing piece of art that will create a beautiful setting for a nightly light show element on its vibrant patterns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Adrian Pere is a Madison-based Industrial Designer and the founder of Peredesign. For his upcoming installation at Warner Park, Adrian is crafting a massive piece of functional art: a rhythmic canopy of 40,000+ fabric strips that dance above the crowd. The installation serves a dual purpose\u2014offering a reprieve of cooling shade while fostering a fun, extraordinary experience.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe goal of the Mallards and Night Mares is simply to make our community a better place to live. We think this beautiful project, in partnership with a brilliant local artist, accomplishes exactly that,\u201d said team President, Vern Stenman.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The project will be reviewed at the March 11 Board of Park Commissioners meeting. Once the project is approved, the project will be fabricated and installed in advance of the Mallards home opener on May 25.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The installation will have three separate elements; one suspended over the Busch Light Duck Blind general admission area, one covering the first base grandstand sections and a third covering the 3rd base grandstand. Light Wings will be installed high enough to assure that no sight lines are obstructed from current seating areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Stay tuned to Mallards and Night Mares social media accounts for updates on the unveiling event. Initial renderings for the \u201cLight Wings\u201d project are attached.
