The installation Chromo Sapiens is a landscape of hair created from synthetic hair extensions, which is the artist Shoplifter’s signature medium. You enter three caves, the first one is called Primal Opus; inspired by earthy hues, blacks and browns lined the walls with flashes of neon colored hair bringing it alive. The second and biggest chamber, Astral Gloria, is an explosion of brightly colored hair hanging from disorientating heights and dramatically illuminated by lights. Different recordings of sounds are played from various hidden speakers, creating a soundscape that is as all-encompassing as the landscape. Last is the third chamber Opium Natura, where shades of white and pastels created a celestial cloud cave. Guests are encouraged to touch the installation and dwell in it, enjoying the colors and sounds which can be described as a sort of color therapy and open eyed meditation.
