We learned about this fantastical creation, called Intersections, on a blog called Chookooloonks. It's a little hard to see what's going on in the picture, but it's a cube made from six laser cut panels, with a light source inside. The room itself is just a rectangle with white walls.
The creator is Anila Quayyum Agha, a Pakistani-American artist, who apparently was inspired by a visit to Alhambra in Spain.
Unfortunately for us, this installation is at Rice University in Texas. A bit of a drive.
Imagine our delight when we learned that Intersections is currently in our own backyard, as a visiting exhibition at the Peabody-Essex Museum in Salem, MA. And that it will be there during Seeing in Patterns, Thinking in Code.
We're planning to take the entire class on June 29th.
