The Beautiful Chamber of Many Colours!


There is an amazing art exhibition at the UWA Winthrop sim. Friend Drax Ember had gone to visit it the other night and invited me over to show me one particular exhibit that he had liked. It’s by artist Gingered Alsop and its called The Chamber. I followed Drax inside and we were in a pitch black area with shafts of light beginning to form around us, then the fireworks began! Every three minutes the dazzling light show changes to a new theme and you are bathed in different colours and shapes as the particles dance around the chamber. The colours are so vibrant and the patterns so well thought out that you are stunned at each effect. Later on I asked fellow writer Hibiscus Hastings to come and look and she loved it too. For anyone with a little bit of time, and if they are keen photographers, this is the place to get some unusual shots. Gingered explains on a poster outside that she was inspired by the Particle Laboratory on the Teal sim so she created The Chamber. She says that viewers should look at the display from different areas in the chamber to get the full effects, i.e. from above and below. Gingered has certainly used her skill and imagination to put this wonderful exhibit together. The whole exhibition, which is on 4 floors has some fantastic artworks. I will make sure I go back to look at the other exhibits as they look awesome too!
