Residents and visitors of Miami can be advised in the next few weeks to look into the area in Miami Beach, where at this time exhibited a large-scale installation Exhale Pavilion by artists Rachely Rotem and Phu Hoang, which in the future is destined to turn into … a coral reef.
Rachely Rotem and Phu Hoang created an installation consisting of seven miles of reflective and phosphorescent ropes suspended several meters high in various shapes and combinations. These ropes are installed right on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, and are subject to all the winds blowing from it (really, what kind of winds are there in Miami?)
Any wind blowing one of these ropes will be caught by the computer monitoring this process, and the rope lighting will be immediately changed. Thus, by the wriggling light, the state of the weather over the ocean, the strength and direction of the wind and other meteorological details will be clear. It is not for nothing that the installation is called "Exhale", that is, "exhale".
All this colorful beauty can be observed in the recreation area created under the Exhale Pavilion installation. There will be several rows of chairs, many suspended hammocks, a dance floor with a DJ controller, an observation tower, a cocktail bar and a video showroom. A great place for a relaxing oceanfront getaway.
And after the Exhale Pavilion ceases to operate, seven miles of ropes will be donated to non-profit organizations for various purposes, and concrete and metal elements will be sent to the water off the coast of Miami Beach, where they will form the basis for coral reefs that were almost extinct a few years ago. time of unprecedented frost for these latitudes.
However, in order to see the Exhale Pavilion installation by Rachely Rotem and Phu Hoang, you must first fend off the giant pink snails placed by the Cracking Art Group on the streets of Miami at the end of November. Very dangerous creatures!
