The Cataract

Scene design for "The Cataract" by Lisa D'Amour at The University of Texas at Austin.
The language is space and efficient, so should the design be. It is a sparse and elemental design setting an ethereal mood. The tall splintered wood suggest both the inside of a log cabin and the dense forest that might surround the house. The pallet is grey and brown palette, within it pops of color emerge. This world exists in a realm that is somewhere between dream world and waking life. This piece has a beautiful strangeness that sabotages an audiences expectations while poetically unearthing mysteries into our inner self.
