The Energy Core Completed February 2001 |
||
This permanent installation was commissioned by SMS, a UK based company specialising in satellite data links. The light feature is custom made to fit into a small space resembling a lift shaft located by the entrance to the recently completed new wing of the building. The room is approximately 2.5 metres square in floor area and 5 metres tall. The treatment of the surroundings walls was carefully designed to create the appropriate atmosphere. An illusion of great height is achieved with a circular mirror attached to the ceiling and another on the floor. The mirror in the picture below has a hole, approximately 0.35 metres in diameter cut in the centre to allow a concealed light to shine through. The light installation is not open to the public. | ||
The installation was created in collaboration with Greg Gutbezahl, who designed the treatment of the walls. for more information on his work, visit: For more information about SMS, visit www.sms.co.uk |
