Opal - An Immersive Light Bath

Role: Creative Director and Technical Artist 

​

Role included creating animations, sculpting the crystals, designing the set and interactions, and installing the final piece. I worked closely with a of team of amazing artists who helped make this installation a reality.

“Opal” is an immersive light bath where participants relax in a crystal pool and bask in colorful animations. This piece was created with the intention to promote stress relief and relaxation through playful interactions. In this installation, participants are bathed in rainbow light that can be bent to their will. As they move and wiggle about, participants can see themselves and how their movements distort and remix the psychedelic visuals that are being projected onto their bodies in an overhead mirror. With Opal, participants are in complete control and can define their own experience. The more they move, the more the animations, and fun, intensifies. Or, they can choose to remain still and let the hypnotic visuals and warm lights relax and calm their minds.​
