We are not going to showcase all the street style and ‘trendiest’ outfit of Coachella, (because everyone else is doing it) but we are reviewing this great project called ‘Reflection Field’ by artist Phillip K. Smith. The Project consists of 5 massive freestanding structures made of mirrors and LEDs.
The interactive prisms of light and color are monumental – some ranging from 18 feet tall to 17 feet wide. The size alone is guaranteed to impress – and combined with the enchanting mirrors and LEDs, it’s a mesmerizing addition to the chaos of Coachella.
The reflective structures balance beautifully with the environment during the day. Absolutely fitting for a festival like Coachella, where there is no short supply of color and mayhem – as such, the mirrors make the event even brighter.
But the real magic begins when the sun goes down. Slowly, the mirrored towers start turning into massive blocks of color. Each of the five structures glows in a rainbow of different hues. At night, the blocks don’t blend into the environment – they stand out like massive colorful aliens, here to party with the rest of Coachella.
