The power of Turrell's skyspaces
lie in their framing, an act that changes our perception by
excluding everything but the sky. Colors are richer and deeper.
Clouds are more defined. Planes and birds are unexpected and
fleeting. During the day light moves across the walls like
a sundial, while towards sunset the clouds recede and the
sky rapidly intensifies its blueness.
Around this time, the effects of the artificial lights recessed
behind the benches that bathe the walls become more pronounced,
ranging from green
to pink.
The effect aspires for the meditative, though often the fellow
visitors are a curious distraction. |
