The new work reacts to the architectural space using colour and light to create vast immersive installation art. Using the gallery as a laboratory West also tested the influence and perception of luminous colour in a certain area and on visitors experiencing it.

Transforming Federation House into a sensory, visceral experience by overloading it with artificial chromatic light, West is interested in the psychological, physical, emotional and spiritual responses visitors experience during their encounter.
