The Skull  of  Actaeon

The Skull of Actaeon was built over the spring and summer of 2014. It was built as a personal project with the intention of bring it to the Burning Man arts Festival. 

​

Aside from being a large scale representation of a deer's skull, the piece has an interactive lighting component. The podium in the front has a hand shaped mould that participants put their hands in. A pulse sensor in the mould detects the participants heart beat. The lighting in the eye-sockets sync and flash to the participant's pulse.

​

This piece was built by a small crew consisting of:

​

Beatrix the White - Lead Artist, Designer, and Builder

Karen Oh - Promo and Fundraising Lead

​

The piece has made appearances at:

​

Beakerhead 2019

Bass Coast 2015

Burning Man 2014

Burn in the Forest 2014
