“Light Elephant” is a site reflective, collaborative project by Iman Djouini and Jonathan Taube. The project features a 16ft white inflatable elephant that travels to specific locations where it is documented through digital images that are later distributed through print and social media.
Block by block, story by story, and for a sustained time period, this artwork engages public space and produces digital content through a social media campaign through Downtown Baltimore City and Santa Barbara.
In Baltimore City, this project was made in relationship with Baltimore City neighborhood association of The Coldstream Homestead Montebello community who helped to pick initial locations throughout Baltimore city. In Santa Barbara, CA, this project was in partnership with the Santa Barbara Office of Arts and Culture, the Downtown Santa Barbara, with
educational partners at the Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara.
