Wright Brothers National Memorial, NC

This NPS site in Kill Devil Hills, NC, reopened in 2018 after a multiyear renovation of its historic visitors center. RBH produced four media installations inside the new exhibition created by Formations, Inc.
A large, vertically - oriented monitor displays artists’ “First Flight” portraits to celebrate men and women who made significant breakthroughs in Aviation.
Above a full-scale replica of the wind tunnel the Wright Brothers built to test their wing shapes a short RBH video illustrates the models, methodology, and instruments the Brothers invented and employed to discover their successful wing shape for their Glider #2.
