Sketch Series 2: Weatherspoon Art Museum
The main hallway in the weatherspoon art gallery is a very dynamic space when it comes to light. There is a skylight pertruding up and angeled so the sunlight doesn't directly enter the space, limiting the amount of glare. There is also a long flourescent fixture shining on one wll. The side facing the gallaries is opaque focusing the light on the white wall. The space is very dynamic and is the perfect background for the featured art.
There is a small pavillion off the side of the main gallary. It is situated on the edge of campus on the corner of spring garden and Tate Street. This space houses a featured part of visiting exhibits. Floor to ceiling windows allow light to fill the space and provide visual connection to the campus. Directly above this pavillion is an interesting bell shaped form with a skylight at the very top. This is a very special moment and shows its significance through form and light
