dam. wow.
shhhhhhwarrrrrrggggwwwwwoooo
spent yesterday in the tate modern and about an hour of that just in awe at the weather project.
the tate is in an old powerstation and the main hall is what used to be the turbine room and must be like 200m long and 100m high. the weather project is basically a huge orange sun right up in the top of the hall against the mirrored roof.
i just can't even describe it. you walk in the room and its just there - it has a presence like ive never felt. the room is dark and theres a mist and then this vast shimmering sun and as you look up its like everything including you are so small and insignificant. the heat rising in the room also makes ripples in the sun and the reflections in the cieling mirrors which makes it feel like its drawing you in. you just get completly lost in it
awesome. beautiful. and scary.
