ORB: Montreal’s Hypnotic Masterpiece
Esplanade Tranquille in Montreal's Place des Arts welcomes the monumental work ORB by Spanish artist SpY, who masterfully merges contemporary art and ancestral spirituality.
This installation was made possible thanks to a partnership between MURAL Festival, Place des Arts, the Quebec government and Tourisme Montréal. Day or night, the 4-metre-diameter piece serves as a living mirror for the city, with 90 convex mirrors in polished steel. It captures light, reflects passersby and reshapes space with a permanent kaleidoscope effect that draws everyone into its ORBit.
