About

MISSION --- The Sublime.

“Neither man or nation can exist without a sublime idea.”

Dostoyevsky

The Windmill Factory partners with responsible Corporations, Not for Profits, Arts Organizations to creatively address social or environmental causes. Previous works include Interactive Performance Installations, Interactive Sculptures, International Dance Theatre Collaborations, Fashion Products, Loft/Interior Design, an Arts Funding Company, and Various Themed Events.

The goal of our work is to spark a sublime moment for the viewer/listener/consumer.

Perhaps this inspiration comes from Don Quixote’s quest for sublime adventure, a desire for danger driven goose bumps, a love of slapstick, or a battle with the inexplicable.

Perhaps these varied inspirations bring our varied works.

We want you to laugh, we want you to be moved, we want you to interact with our work. To be inspired by it’s complicité between power and fragility, humor and fear, beauty and utility.

We want you to question how you view community, landscape, existence.

Perhaps it brings insight to a pressing issue, explores nature’s battle with human nature,

reveals an undiscovered place or time, or is simply fun to slide down.

Regardless, we hope our work brings greater beauty to your world.
