Na – interactive installation & performance
Na, a spinoff of MICRO, consists of spheres hanging down that people can walk through and touch. The name, Na, comes from the periodic table, it’s the abbreviation for sodium. Just as sodium has 11 electrons, Na has 11 spheres. The layout of the spheres mirrors the electron arrangement of sodium. When seen from above, the spheres are laid out in 3 concentric circles. Each sphere is touch interactive, generating sound and light when activated. The sounds from each sphere are all different, but create harmony between each other. Na brings us into relation with the smallest elements of our world, showing us we’re all parts of a vast universe.
Na appeared on world premiere at The Art Gallery of New York University Abu Dhabi in 2017. Also Performance workshops are provided to students of NYUAD.
