The Kaleidoscope is designed as an art installation, a pavilion. Mirror
elements reflect surrounding Vermanes Garden and pavilion visitors. Pyramidal mirror
polygons shape multifaceted patterns of images, light and color, that change each time
looking at the pavilion from a different angle, together with different people or at different
times of the day. An interactive sound installation in the center of the pavilion is also based on
a similar principle. The Kaleidoscope interprets visitor's words by converting them
into metallic sounds according to the voice and speech volume of each person. In the daytime
pavilion reflects the sun's rays, but at night it is lit by the installation of a moving artificial
light.
The Kaleidoscope is designed as a part of light festival Staro Rīga.
