Surprise Party

Aaron Dysart's fascinating installation in the Regis Fountain Court at the Minneapolis Institute of Art was presented in celebration of Mia's 100th anniversary. When unoccupied the room was normally illuminated with a mirrored ball suspended ball in the center of the space.  When someone entered the room, a sensor turned the ambient lights off, while the spotlights turned on instantly bathing the entire space in a spectacular light show.  When the viewer left the space, the room returned to normal. 

Aaron Dysart: Surprise Party. Minneapolis Institute of Art. March 12 - April 19, 2015.
