Panorama - High Museum of Art

Panorama Visual Description

My name is Monica Obniski and I’m the High’s curator of Decorative arts and Design and this is an audio description of Panorama.

Panorama consists of four vertically oriented cuboids that measure approximately eleven feet tall by five feet wide by five feet deep. The cuboids are in the center of the Sifly Piazza and spaced with enough distance for people to move in between them with outstretched arms. The surface of each cuboid is a highly reflective glass, which shifts from a natural mirror effect on one side to a deep orange hue on another. The cuboids reflect each other as well as the buildings, trees, furniture, and people around them. Each cuboid rotates slowly, so the intensity of the color and reflections are constantly changing.
