About House of Dream Offentlig kunst

House of Dream er en offentlig kunstskulptur installert i Shenzhen, Kina. Skulpturen er laget av rustfritt stål, LED-belysning og PC-plate med enveisspeil, og måler 320 centimeter i bredden, 120 centimeter i dybden og 400 centimeter i høyden. Om dagen speiler den reflekterende overflaten omgivelsene. Om natten danner skiftende lys et innadvendt rom. Besøkende samhandler med verket og endrer lyseffektene. Skulpturen reflekterer over den ensartede fremtoningen til mange nye boligbygg og fremkaller minner om hjemmet.
