tokujin yoshioka: 'lake of shimmer' for swarovski at baselworld 09


'lake of shimmer' installation by tokujin yoshioka
constructed by expomobilia

tokujin yoshioka designed the 'lake of shimmer' installation for the swarovski
stand at baselworld 2009, the largest watch fair in the world.
16,000 octagon shaped mirrors have been attached to a wall measuring 9 by 8 meters.
a computer controls the angle of each of those mirrors to create patterns. the crystal-like
small mirrors flutter in the wind like sunlight reflects on the surface of a lake.
