Artist Gabriel Dawe makes indoor rainbows, using colored string and thread installed in intricate bands of vibrant dimensionality. The work is bright, singular and fascinating, adding a subtle rainbow to architectural spaces, and allowing light to hit the art in beautiful ways. Via MyModernMet:

“A really important aspect of my work is the color,” he tells My Modern Met. “It took the installations to really give me the permission to explore with the full spectrum. I’ve always really liked really bright colors. To me, tolerance is the embodiment of joy. So, not just color but the full spectrum. I love the idea that all of these different components come together to form a unity.”
