2014 Vivid Sydney: Kaleido-Wall 1.0 #4
Vivid Light transforms Sydney into a wonderland of 'light art' sculptures, innovative installations and grand-scale projections for all to enjoy.
May 23 - 9 June 2014
Remember the first time you ever looked through a kaleidoscope? Endlessly shifting, glittering patterns of colour, gloriously intricate shapes forever reforming themselves – this simple cylinder of beads and mirrors creates a magical world of colourful perfection and refraction.
Kaleido-Wall 1.0 draws inspiration from this wonderful toy. The artwork relies on light and on movement in its surrounding environment to create complex, multicoloured patterns.
Reflecting its immediate environment, and enhancing these images with light, Kaleido-Wall 1.0 allows you to see the harbourside and the Vivid Sydney crowds through a breathtakingly refreshing lens. Try standing on one side of the structure, and looking through to your friends on the other side – they will appear in mosaic form, mixed with tiny shattered images of nearby buildings and structures.
The wall is a 1.2m deep, modular latticework; all internal surfaces of the structure are constructed using highly reflective, mirror-like panels. You can view the structure from both sides, and the reflections work both in daylight and at night.
