An Iridescent Palace of Rainbows by Kimsooja

In 2006, South Korean multi-disciplinary conceptual artist Kimsooja transformed the Palacio de Cristal in Madrid into a multi-sensory installation called To Breathe – A Mirror Woman, which experimented with the sensitivity of light and sound. The iridescent colors projected through the space are a result of a unique translucent diffraction film, which covered the windows. To intensify the rainbow spectrum throughout the room, a mirrored surface was also added to the entire floor. In addition to altering the experience of sight for the viewer, Kimsooja added an audio recording of her breathing throughout the space to intensify the ethereal moment. The results were grand, yet intimate and surreal.
