Trend Hunter may have featured light shows before, but nothing was ever as transcendent as this Bindu Shards art installation. Described as a "perceptual cell" by artist and creator James Turrell, it brings people into a state of ecstasy during the 15 minutes they are inside the sphere.
Currently being exhibited at the Gagosian Gallery in London, the Bindu Shards light show messes with your senses and perceptions so much that once inside, "you do not know what is inside and outside your head," according to The Guardian art writer Jonathan Jones.
