Lasers bounce off The Capitol’s iconic ceiling, transforming the auditorium into a kinetic sculpture of light.

For a hundred years, The Capitol Theatre has been a prismatic fantasy. Look up and get lost in the crystal cave, dreamlike in its symmetry. Now, for his first time showing intangible #form in Melbourne, artist Shohei Fujimoto morphs the iconic auditorium into a pulsing ocean of lasers. A light-spiked gateway to the edges of perception.

Fujimoto is an artist who uses light to explore inner and outer truth. For RISING he data-maps The Capitol and transforms it into large-format kinetic sculpture. An explorable sea of red beams that syncopates with your synapses to our universal understanding of the space. 

Objects with no physical properties flicker and form before you. Floating prisms, spheres, and cubes enter the realm of the real. Everyone’s experience will be different, but the audiovisual choreography stays constant. The light swallows you up.
