Light art and art lighting are fully incorporated in a gallery installation with architect Lebbeus Woods and artist Kiki Smith. At the heart of the show is a swath of radiant overhead imagery that provides the room’s only illumination. The piece’s integrated lighting creates a subtle luminous dark blue object that appears to float in space, while providing enough lighting to assist viewer navigation. Adjoining rooms feature the same low-level blue glow and art works highlighted with “moonlight.”
