Prismatica

@ Navy Pier, Polk Bros Park

600 E Grand Ave, Chicago, IL 60611

Opening Friday, February 16th, from 5PM - 12AM

On view through Sunday, April 15th

We invite you to join us in the public unveiling of Prismatica, our new interactive art installation at Polk Bros Park at Navy Pier, presented in partnership with the Quartier des Spectacle and RAW Design.

This immersive installation, comprised of 25 pivoting prisms more than six feet tall, transforms Polk Bros Park in Navy Pier into a giant kaleidoscope. The prisms are made of panels laminated with a dichronic film that transmits and reflects every color in the visible spectrum, varying with the position of the light source and the observer. The prisms are mounted on bases containing projectors. As guests wander among and manipulate the prisms, they will enjoy an infinite interplay of lights and colorful reflections. As the prisms rotate, a variable-intensity soundtrack comprised of bell sounds will play.

Admission to this exhibit is FREE and open to the public.
