Underpass.

A definite favorite of the week. By Joe O'Connell and Blessing Hancock, Ballroom Luminoso is a series of six brilliantly lit and color changing chandeliers located at intersection of Theo and Malone with I-35, San Antonio, Texas. It references the area’s past, present, and future in the design as well as the community's strong Hispanic heritage. Read more here.

Check the piece out, which includes conception all the way into installation - the photos are amazing.

Rain Room.

First debuting at the Barbican Centre in London, Rain Room has now come to MoMA. The large-scale, interactive installation by  rAndom International is actually a standing exhibit that is completely separate from the museum itself; the environment of a field of pouring rain allows visitors to wander around the room amidst stimulated drops without getting wet. Injection moulded tiles, solenoid valves, pressure regulators are just a number of things that help make up the incredibly complex installation. It'll be a fixture until July 28th and you can read more here.
