LVMH Tower

Invited by Jessica Miller, Grimanesa Amorós spoke at LVMH headquarters in New York City on how light art transforms an environment. Drawing on her work across public commissions, cultural institutions, and architectural landmarks, she discussed how light shapes the way people move through and experience a space, and how artists and institutions use it to communicate with their audiences.

The conversation explored the intersection of art and storytelling, and the role both play in how institutions present themselves to the world. Amorós spoke about her approach to creating large-scale installations, the considerations that guide each site-specific work, and the ways an environment can shape what an audience feels and remembers before anything is said.
