Structure
Light arrives though snouts Creating spots of light on the floor which
move around as the day progresses, intended to create a mystic
atmosphere
The gallery space is below ground level.
A partially hidden staircase leads to a circular door which opens into
a cave-like space.
Though designed to display paintings, the cave has no straight
walls, instead using a continuation of the curved dome structure
which extends down to the floor.
