About The Gothic Folly

Alex Noerpel & Hunter Keene · New York, NY, United States

The Gothic Folly

A monumental open-air cathedral rises from the playa as a skeletal framework of towers, arches, and luminous panels. The structure evokes both a gothic ruin and a futuristic folly, blending sacred architecture with raw industrial materials. By day, sunlight passes through colorful translucent panels that resemble stained glass, casting shifting color across the desert floor. By night, integrated lighting transforms the framework into a radiant beacon of light and geometry visible across the playa. The installation represents a temporary cathedral for Black Rock City: a place where monumental architecture, light, and the desert landscape combine to create a shared space for collective presence and interactivity.
