The Tenth

A sculpture by Geodesic Temple
Disorient Country Club 2022, Shandaken, NY

The sculpture is composed of ten partly-overlapping wooden octahedra as a commemoration of Country Club's tenth edition.

As we celebrate Country Club's tenth anniversary, we get together and acknowledge our unity. Each of the ten overlapping octahedra not only represents a year of Country Club but symbolizes all the souls that have been involved that respective year.

All those years, all those participants are unified as one abstraction beyond words. The coalesced resulting octahedra represents this abstraction, this singularity.

On the last sunset of Country Club, when the fire activates the geometry in a unique way during the burn of the Tenth we hope this interaction generates a special vibration which will help unify everyone and everything present, past and future.
