Eleanor Rahim: Ethereal Space at The Badge Building

Ethereal Space at The Badge Building

My series of paintings called Ethereal Space was purchased by The Badge Building as a permanent installation for the lobby area. Residents of the luxury condominium building (that once served as a factory in the production of police badges for New York City officers) cast their vote and the fate of Ethereal Space was sealed. Thanks to all the residents who voted, the building's board members, the building's staff, Michelle Abbani of Cornerstone Management and LICArtists.

“As a Feng Shui consultant and integrative designer, I look for specific representation and metaphor in artwork. The first time I saw a piece of Eleanor’s work, [Fluid State] I was struck first by its movement, which can be very effective in energizing a particular area of one’s life or business if it is placed prescriptively. The other aspect which I found potent, is her use of color. Color interprets the ‘five elements’ or what is referred to as ‘agents of change’ in feng shui. 'Fluid State' is primarily whites and blues - the metal and water elements. Metal represents virtue, communication, joy and creativity. Water is associated with wisdom, one’s path in life and finances. I immediately thought I love this piece and what a powerful adjustment it would make for my client.”
