"A Skyspace for Contemplation: Dividing the Light." A skyspace offers visitors a place to sit and contemplate the sky. Skyspaces are popular with museums and other institutions. The latest has just been completed at Pomona College in California.
Pomona’s new architectural installation, was designed by the artist James Turrell, who is an alumnus of Pomona. The structure was installed in a courtyard within a group of buildings that houses Pamona’s psychology, neuroscience, and linguistics and cognitive-science programs. A square oculus is in the middle of a stainless-steel canopy erected in the courtyard; a stone pool beneath it reflects the sky’s bright blue during the day and its inky darkness at night. The beautiful new skyspace installation is entitled "Dividing the Light." A photograph and video of the Pomona skyspace are included.
Please have a look and enjoy this wonderful architectural installation!!
