“Robin Stanaway's "Collective Corrective Vision" is a beautiful display of light and glass. In a mass e-mail, she asked people to send her their old eyeglasses, with which she wove a beautiful net that refracts light over the narrow stairwell in which it's hung.”

“Robin Stanaway’s “Collective Corrected Vision” wires together a few hundred pairs of spectacles into a tapestry of lenses that drapes across the gallery’s steep and narrow upper stairwell. Two white spotlights illuminate the matrix of lenses from above and below; the light is reflected and refracted into rich dappled patterns on the stairwell ceiling, walls and the stairs. Sunglasses in the sculpture add a dash of color.”

"...like a river of sparkling thought rising to the heavens then a cascade flowing down to the sea..."

"Ambient ventilation system currents are sufficient to animate these sparkling "shadows" -- giving them the languid movement of drifting jellyfish, darting across the ceiling or turning slowly in a cluster on the floor as though caught in an eddy. Occasionally two plates come together, making a sound that has the lilting quality that a far wind chime produces."
