How amazinggggggg is this installation by Kirsten Hassenfeld?!!!
It's called Dans La Lune.
Here's a little extract about the name of installation from Rice Gallery.
Kirsten Hassenfeld on Dans la Lune:
Some friends were visiting from France, and one described speaking with her doctor about a medication. She had inquired if it would make her "dans la lune." When I asked her what that meant, she said, "dopey, drugged." Later I looked up the French idiom and found that it referenced daydreaming. "Il est dans la lune" can be translated as "He’s got his head in the clouds," or "He’s on another planet." Dans la Lune is a perfect title because in my work I try to create an imaginary place that relates to our longings for a better, grander existence.
