Artfully Rotating Glass Pillars

Sebine Marcelis Created the Panorama Pillars in Atlanta

— August 1, 2024 — Art & Design
Dutch designer Sabine Marcelis has created the captivating Panorama, which is comprised of four rotating glass pillars. It is located in the plaza of Atlanta's High Museum of Art. All of the pillars are clad in bright glass panels in warm tones of orange and red with am ombre visual. Visitors are met with a new perspective of their surroundings when passing through this artful installation.

The team explains the pillars, noting "By entering the space between the pillars as they rotate, visitors are given a seamless visual experience that offers a different perspective of their surroundings. As the pillars move, they will act as magnets to their surroundings, pulling light into a desaturated space to generate colorful reflections, increasing the visual impact of the work."
