The sculpture captures the pulse of Columbus. Patterns found in the city’s sounds and textures are translated into light and color, which play on the surfaces of three floating triangular pyramids. Through RGB LEDs and video projection, Pulse comes alive as a glowing prism of energy, revealing the rhythm of the heart of Columbus. Troy Petty 32 OBLSK is a group of artists based in Columbus, who create powerful multisensory media experiences and creative marketing through video, projection, interactive art and technology, costume and set design, storytelling, graphic design, and more.

The focus of the group is providing quality movement instruction in a supportive, nonconfrontational environment. Additionally, the lab is home to The Mikey Butane Performance Group, which strives to create meaningful, well-thought works that challenge both the performer and viewer. Issues of breaking rules of traditional modes of performance, gender representation, and shattering expected “rules” are inherent in the works. Movement Activities Photo: Kevin Olbrecht Movement Activities and The Mikey Butane Performance Group are founded by people who are native to Columbus. The group has a vision of supporting local art, and Columbus born, and trained artists. Movement Activities will hold pop-up performances on their aerial apparatus located in the grass lot on the southwest corner of Town St. and Washington Blvd. throughout the weekend. 33 FRIDAY SATURDAY 11:00 a.m. Melanie Tolle Storyteller 11:30 a.m. Lisa Shipman Donna Wilson Storytellers 12:00 p.m. Judy Bateman T.

Artists who apply in this category must be residents of Franklin or surrounding counties, including Union, Delaware, Licking, Fairfield, Pickaway, Fayette and Madison. Adrianne George Of the 27 applications received this year, 12 artists were selected through a blind jury process by panelists working in various creative disciplines. As part of the program, each participating Emerging Artist receives assistance from Festival staff on how to best present their work to the public. Support your local artists and buy some of their work today! To find Emerging Artists’ booth locations on site, check out the Artists listing on page 47. We encourage local artists who are new to exhibiting at outdoor shows to apply to the 2017 Columbus Arts Festival. Applications will be available at columbusartsfestival.org starting in October.
