Project Summary
Describing the Meow Wolf experience, Marsi Gray, Las Vegas senior creative producer, says, “You start in a familiar place. From there, wormholes and portals transport you to unknown worlds.” Omega Mart begins in what is ostensibly a supermarket, leading to a network of media-rich spaces and storytelling that comments on consumerism and corporate culture. The adventure is open-ended and self-guided. Visitors can spend as much time as they like in the four anchor spaces and numerous individual art installations. According to Gray, the typical stay is 90 minutes to two hours, but some visitors breeze through more quickly and others make a full day of it.
Barbizon Lighting is able to take a very raw concept and apply a lot of permanent solution concepts as well as on-site management of installation, programmers, lighting technicians, and so forth, and that was monumentally important. Our goal is to build a team of talented creative lighting designers and give them the tools to create something incredible, taking high-level concepts from creators and designers and turning them into experiences.
