Title
Rainbow Assembly
Description
Rays of light illuminate a circle of mist in a darkened room, creating shimmering rainbows in the air. Approaching the rainbows, you discover the machinery that produces them: rings of sprinklers and spotlights on the ceiling. An important feature of Eliasson’s works is that the mechanisms that produce them are never hidden, but always exposed. In this way, the works are not illusions that deceive and seduce the viewer, but rather demonstrations of how reality is always constructed.
