AMDM Presents Upcoming Exhibition by Mariko
The countdown has begun for the November 9 unveiling of the newest exhibition in the Adobe Museum of Digital Media – Journey to Seven Light Bay, a commissioned work by well-known artist Mariko Mori, curated by Tom Eccles, executive director of the Bard College Center for Curatorial Studies, Annandale in Hudson, NY. Mori has a longtime interest in harmonizing nature, spiritualism and technology. Through Journey to Seven Light Bay, we get a look at her artistic process and experience a digital recreation of her physical project, Primal Rhythm, now being built on Miyako Island off the coast of Okinawa in Japan. A unique feature of the exhibition is a white glowing orb, the Tida Dome, that greets visitors as they enter the AMDM atrium. Inspired by prehistoric caves of Okinawa, the Tida Dome illuminates in the same way the caves do when sunlight strikes them from a specific angle.
Check out the trailer below to get a sense of Mori’s work, and visit the exhibition when it launches at the AMDM.
