roomdivision: subtilitas: Junya Ishigami’s “balloon” from the Space for Your Future exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Tokyo (2007-2008), is a massive reflecting object that floats suspended in the atrium of the museum. Weighing just under a ton, the sculpture, built from light gauge steel trusses and reflective aluminum panels, is filled with an equilibrium of helium that allows it to hover precariously over visitors heads below, and is free from any connections to its surroundings.
