On April 1st at Ayers Rock Resort, Uluru, an impressive art installation will be opened to the public, an artwork that represents, as the author simply put, the joy. Bruce Munro’s installation consists of more than 50.000 stems with frosted-glass solar powered heads and covers an area the size of four football fields. The author represents in this way the feeling he got the first time he saw this place back in 1992.
Field of Light Uluru will be the most impressive to observe when darkness falls and at sunrise, so the guest of the exhibition can experience two different variants – a Night at Field of Light dining experience and the option to enjoy at Sunrise as the lights fade into the morning light. There is already huge interest for booking places for this magical experience which will be possible to enjoy until March 2017.

“Field of Light was one idea that landed in my sketchbook and kept on nagging at me to be done. I saw in my mind a landscape of illuminated stems that, like the dormant seed in a dry desert, quietly wait until darkness falls, under a blazing blanket of southern stars, to bloom with gentle rhythms of light…Field of Light is a personal symbol for the good things in life. I now have the honor and privilege of returning to create an iteration of this artwork for the place that inspired it. A work conceived in the red desert returns to its birthplace springing from the dry ground,” said Munro about the exhibition.
