Cobalt Sun Studio
Cobalt Sun is the performance art gallery and experimental workshop of visionary artist Lynn Augstein.
Augstein opened the space as a laboratory for filming and designing light environments and art installations in 2003.
The studio design allows for vast ambient changes offering the participant a unique healing experience through light, color, movement and sound.
The location of the gallery is obscure, offering a pleasant surprise when entering from the street.
Upon entering you'll find a large and gentle atmosphere where visual-auditory sensations flood your senses as you immerse into a meditative state that promotes healing at a deep mental, physical and spiritual level.
The intention is to shift your perception from the fast forward everyday world to dropping in and slowing down, resting your eyes and spirit. The interactive experience is deepened by mystical music and sound complimenting the full visceral experience.
Cobalt Sun has hosted several unusual gallery opening for such as: Nouriman Manoscheri from Iran, a large format painter presented with multi media projections and music, Lama Pema Tenzin a lama from Buthan who's Thankas and Mandalas are powerful spiritual portals for meditation. His pieces are held in museums and temples worldwide including a 50-foot Thanka for the Dalai Lama.
Cobalt Sun has also hosted and presented many performance artists such as: Steve Roach, Robert Rich, Michael Bentley, Carl Weingarten, Saul Stokes, Michael Diamond, Stephen Halpern; world music artists Soma, Tropozone, Estara, Lisa Moskow and Alcvin Ramos; video and film artists Stephen Olssen, Ken Jenkins and Kosho; DJs Omar and UBO among others local and private performances and workshops.
