Is this what Disco looks like? I’m a bit conflicted about how to describe the interior of this installation by Serge Salat, because I’m not sure how to combine the following words into a single sentence (other than just listing them): Sol LeWitt, Fractals, Disco, Kaleidoscope and LED. And just incase these terms start to seem too cohesive: the temporary interior was sponsored by… Buick and realized inside of a shopping mall in Shanghai. This bizzarre cast of characters were living quite harmoniously in what appears to be a spacious labyrinth, there’s even a video to give you a better idea of how tricky mirrors, fractals, and LEDs can really be. But doesn’t the music seem a bit off? Shouldn’t disco be happening here, if anywhere?
