Triad is a light installation commissioned by Helsinki Art Museum for the new Kalasatama Comprehensive
School.
It consists of three large aluminum reflectors embedded into the wall structure of the school's combined
cafeteria and main hall. Each reflector is illuminated by hidden RGB LED-lights, controlled by a computer.
The color of the lights (Newton's primary colors) change slowly and create random combinations. Due to the
intense light it is difficult to understand the three dimensional nature of the work and the illuminated
reflectors appear as somewhat mystical light spots on the wall.
