Odyssey 2002

Michael Young 

   
 

 

Michael Young's Night Landing is an aluminum and neon sculpture that looks like the Chicago skyline as a plane approaches it. Its yellow neon creates a glow at night, emphasizing particular aspects of the piece not seen by day. Although the grid-like structure has a relatively ordered sameness, it conceals the city in its interstices, which is really like a complex organism.

Young will serve again on the faculty of PNC's Super Summer, teaching sculpture. Young's work is created in one of the only neon/sculpture studios in the Midwest.
