ArtistEmmanuelle Moureauxhas unveiled a new permanentart installationin France.
Cascading down seven floors in the main atrium,TIMELINEis the 47th work in Moureaux’s celebrated100 colorsseries.
This prismatic piece is also the first permanent installation from the series in France.
Its formed from 3,200 numbers that are years stacked on top of themselves.
The work begins at the bottom, in white, with what was then the current year2023.
Fittingly namedLumiere, which means light, the building is the perfect setting for Moureaux’s piece.
The Tokyo-based artist is also an architect and was inspired by the space’s clean, open interiors.
The atrium’s incredible glass roof sparked the idea to create this colorful beam of light.
Now thatTIMELINEis installed, it can bring joy to the thousands of workers who pass through there each day.
