Artificial Stars

By [Veronica Hogland] Tuesday night, members of the art community gathered to see the Windmill Factory?s debut project ?Reflecting the Stars,? created by Jon Morris. Attendees sipped cocktails and listened to speeches from members involved in the piece. The installation, which is located on Pier 49 off the Hudson River, will be  open to the public until Oct. 25. It uses wireless-controlled solar powered LED lamps to imitate and recreate our night sky. [photosmash id=22 layout='gallery_view_layout']
