This one-artist museum is tailored to the works of Berlin based visual artist, Rosa Barba. Set in the SoHo District of New York City, the design pays homage to the industrial district and unique character of the artist’s work. Primary media includes reclaimed film projectors, hand cut film strips, and dramatic compositions of light and space. 

 

The building seeks to complement multi-sensory stimulation characterizing her work through galleries varying in scale and atmosphere. Light wells penetrate between spaces, immersing visitors as they move from one gallery to the next. In an abstract way, the experience attempts to manifest her fascination with subliminal flashes of light between each frame in an imperfectly compiled roll of film.
