"Tom Wiscombe was born to build...His enthusiasm for the craft of architecture is everywhere apparent in Light-Wing, the temporary pavilion that Emergent--Wiscombe's Los Angeles-based firm--designed and built in the courtyard of the P.S. 1 Center for Contemporary Art in Queens, New York. Hovering over the courtyard like an enormous aluminum dragonfly, Light-Wing provides shade, places to sit, and cooling pools of water for the throngs of music and art enthusiasts."
