Double rainbow? All the way? Triple rainbow even? There’s even more prismatic excellence to be found in the works of Atelier Sisu’s installation in London. Here’s more from COLOSSAL:
“Elysian Arcs” is part of RECHARGE 2024, an initiative responding to concerning trends in the mental health of London’s young professionals. Following the duo’s installation titled “Evanescent” in the same location last year, the new iteration incorporates the playfulness of their self-described “bubble-tecture” along with rainbow-like arches that gleam with a pastel sheen.
During the past year, Larriviere and Pasfield have been exploring the possibilities of dichroic materials and curvatures, which lends the iridescence evocative of soap bubbles. The surface of “Elysian Arcs” is designed to allow light to move across both the external and internal surfaces in a way that produces the greatest array of colors, which shift as one moves around or through the piece.
