Forest of Light by Sou Fujimoto for COS
Cinema Arti, Via Pietro Mascagni, 8
Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto partners with global fashion house COS and takes over a former cinema to create the Forest of Light installation. Fujimoto fills the space with pulsating spotlights that capture and react to visitors’ movements. “The spotlight becomes an interface which connects fashion, space and forest as a form of architecture,” says Fujimoto.
