The work of artist Tokujin Yoshioka spans the fields of art, design, and architecture. Giving form to natural energies perceived by human beings and expressing the sensations arising from such perception by original methods, his magnificent lyrical works on natural themes have won worldwide acclaim. Prismatic Cloud, the work installed in the central atrium space at GINZA SIX, goes beyond sensation. The enormous sculpture of light inspired by the principles of nature layers some 10,000 prismatic rods in an approximately 400 square-meter space to create transparent layers through which light penetrates. This cloud-like sculpture of light awakens us to the perception of natural energy.
