As part of a multi-year strategic plan, the Bakken Museum hired Roto to design and fabricate the centerpiece exhibition of their new expansion and renovation while establishing a higher degree of interactivity within the museum.
Located in Minneapolis, Spark is a 1,500 square foot permanent gallery that celebrates the intersection of innovation and inspiration through the lens of medical technology and science fiction. Through a series of creative, collaborative interactives and thought-provoking experiences, the exhibit challenges visitors to, “find their spark and change the world.”
The project also required a dramatic architectural centerpiece, an icon mounted high in the museum’s new entry tower. A swirling sphere of dichroic lenses casts colored light throughout the surrounding landscape.
