5 installation artists

Samuel Burgess-Johnson: He is actually one of my favorite artists, and I knew about him prior to this assignment because of his collaborations with the band The 1975. Samuel makes their album artwork, using neon signs that usually say the bands name or their song titles. The art represents the bands image and aesthetic so well, and I admire not only the installation itself, but the background and his photography skills. (photos from samuelburgessjohnson.com )

Aeolian Light at Salford Quays - commissioned by Quays Culture and University of Salford. It consists of 12,000 individual suspended lights! This piece creates a feeling of vastness and bright, twinkling beauty. Also, depending on the hues of the lights, the feeling shifts from cool to warm. The blue, purple, and green one gives a cooler, under the sea feeling; while the pink and golden yellow create a warmer feeling.

“Wander Through the Crystal Universe” by teamLab is an interactive installation of light sculpture. The viewers can walk around and explore the 3-D space to see how their movement affects the light particles. This installation is incredibly beautiful, bright, and gigantic, and the cool color scheme creates a crystalized affect. https://youtu.be/tPKBDPWOtGk (video and photos from team-lab.net )

Katharina Grosse is a German artist who does graffiti, spray paint, and chalk installations on a massive scale. It creates such a fun, playful, energetic feel. (images from katharinagrosse.com )

Soo Sunny Park - Chain Link Fencing as Art 

She was born in Korea, but grew up in Orlando, Florida. “She received her B.F.A. in painting and sculpture from Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus, Ohio and a M.F.A. in sculpture from Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan” (soosunnypark.com). She currently lives in Hanover, New Hampshire and teaches at Dartmouth College. 

These gorgeous works of art remind me of an opaque, reflective, mosaic, distorted disco ball.
