‘aurora’ lighting installation

‘aurora’ is a mix media lighting installation that draws its influence from the natural phenomenon of northern lights. this sculptural piece created by peruvian interdisciplinary artist grimanesa amoro was installed at the tribeca issey miyake, a worldwide flagship store in manhattan that houses all the collections of the miyake brand under one roof.

‘light is one of my primary materials because it creates presence without physicality. in many occasions, it can be easily taken for granted, since much of what humans perceive comes from light, yet even that which is apparent can be mysterious. I’m always looking for the instance when light, in its changing forms, makes us contemplate and experience an ordinary circumstance in a different way.‘- GA
