    This Colorful Glass Tunnel Looks Out Of This World… Literally!

    Colorful Glass Tunnel

    Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson has created the most beautiful tunnel out of colored glass. The effect is so magical that it looks like it could come from another world. Perhaps unsurprising for a work of art made by someone who comes from a country where more than 50 percent of residents believe in trolls, elves and other mythical creatures. This installation piece can be viewed in the San Francisco Museum of art, where it's possible to walk through the tunnel. Inside, it looks like you're in the interior of a kaleidoscope! Cool!

    However, this piece does have a twist. It's called "One Way Color Tunnel" because when you walk through it from one direction, you see these beautiful colors…

    but walk through from the other side and you see this.

    The glass has been painted with color effect acrylics, which allow the viewer to see color from one direction and then black from the other.

    The idea behind Olafur's work is that when people walk through, they have an unusual sensory experience, which challenges the conceived notions of perspective and perception.
