"Light" is an interactive and visual art experience that explores art and science. Artists will employ glass sculpture and light itself to showcase the sublime beauty that light evokes aesthetically and issues it raises such as vision and optics, physiology of light energy, sustainability, light pollution and conservation.
A large part of the exposition is reliant on audience participation. Step inside an infinite abyss with Refik Anandol's audiovisual installation. Interact and move through large geometric forms that change colour, audio and intensity during an immersive light experience by Circus Family. Escape into a cocoon structured of steel, wool, and found objects that absorb you in a field of playable light by Taylor Dean Harris.
Artists: Adam Belt, Circus Family, Corey Broman, FoldHaus, Jason Webb, Refik Anadol, SKYGLOW and Taylor Dean Harrison.
Collaborators: Antilop, Council Bluffs Community School District, International Dark-Sky Association, Echo Systems, First Sight Eyeglasses, Google, Refik Anadol Studio, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extreme Light Laboratory, University of Nebraska Medical Center/CRHD and WhyArts
