Alison Smith & Matt Collins ‘Valkyrie’ – MIMA

February 2, 10:00 am - March 12, 4:00 pm

Free
A giant textured sphere glows purple in the air. The silhouettes of people can be seen walking towards it.

Created by artist Alison Smith and technologist Matt Collins, Valkyrie is a new breathtaking light sculpture located in the MIMA Garden.

The floating sculpture is comprised of 1,000 LEDs inside a giant glowing orb. When triggered by a voice, light ripples across the textured surface of the sculpture.

Crafted from recycled plastics, Valkyrie creates other-worldly lightscapes and draws inspiration from the energy exchange which takes place when solar winds hit the Earth’s atmosphere.
