37 Dimensions

Mika Tajima's 24 Hour Cosmos series translates global news data into luminescent, holographic wall works that measure collective sentiment across single days.

Why go

Tajima's new series employs photonics and machine learning to laser-etch diffracted data onto photopolymer film, creating ethereal pieces that respond to viewer position—a sophisticated evolution of California Light and Space practice into networked information and sociality.

What to expect

Wall-mounted holographic works with varying prismatic surfaces and shifting luminosity; the 24 Hour Cosmos series anchors the show alongside other recent sculptures and paintings exploring human cognition and control, displayed across Pace's Los Angeles gallery.
