"Flights of MInd" (detail, through oculus)

Hundreds of Books Soar at Berkeley Public Library Flights of Mind by Vita Wells Comprised of well over 200 altered books, Flights of Mind emerges from deep in the heart of Berkeley's Central Library, rushes through the oculus, soars some forty feet through the atrium, and hurls itself to the great window, sky-bound. The piece celebrates possibility and community across space and time. Originally planned for two weeks following its debut on February 9th at the Library Foundation's Authors Dinner, the work has been met with such an overwhelmingly positive public response that the Library has extended its run through March. The library is open daily. Admission is free. Details about location and hours, images and more information is available through the link provided.
