James Turell

James Turell is an American artist who is concerned with light ans space. Turell is also famous for creating light tunnels, and projections that create that have mass weight and their only created with light. One of Turell creations that really capture my attention are Turell skyscapes.To create this skyscape, Turell had to cut the roof of a museum in the shape of a circle so the view of the sky could be seen through the cut circle. After the circle is cut the light from the sky reflect back through the circle inside the museums wall and floors which makes part of Turell work. If you look up through the cut circle you could see the view of the sky, clouds whether its a rainy day or sunny day.
Through the circle you could experience many other things other than the view of the sky. For example, you can see the things flying in the sky, and the different shapes the clouds have. Also, you can see when the sky is turning into a darker color or a lighter color. In many cases, the sun can also be seen through the circle. It all depends the season and the time of the day in which the sky is been seen through the circle. The light of the sky is reflected through the museum walls which makes the light be original. In this picture, we can see how the light of the light is reflected inside and in the shape of a circle.
