Illumination Station

Illumination Station

In the dark, wet winter months of Seattle, Electric Coffin’s Illumination Station became a beacon of brightness. The installation acted as a portal that temporarily transported viewers into a glowing moment of clarity during foggy times. From the exterior, park visitors were greeted by colorful floral patterns – a reminder that spring would come again. When walking through, a lit mosaic ceiling showered visitors with colorful light to recharge the spirit throughout weeks of cloudy skies.

This piece was on display in Occidental Square from December 2018 to January 2019.
