moma for lunch

today i went to the moma over a leisurely lunch. i hadn'tbeen to the moma in over a decade, and enjoyed it so much, i'll be going back to finish what i started.

most notable, and the best reason for returning, was Take your time: Olafur Eliasson.

we walked into kaleidoscopes, controlled a wall of waves, skirted around an ethereal rain sheen, watched light shift and dance, and at the end, became a living group of black and white. the last part almost overwhelmed my senses, it was so odd to stand in a room, color washed out of our clothes and faces.

i'll return before it ends. if you're in town, i'll take ya!
