Gemields created the installation for the London Design Festival 2019 in partnership with designer Dan Tobin Smith and The Experience Machine, which brings [Mozambican rubies and Zambian emeralds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collaborative-jewellery) from Gemfields mines to life. By magnifying the surface of gemstones, the exhibition creates "abstract, galaxy-like structures" that seem both familiar and foreign, blurring the lines between art, design and the natural world. The immersive VOID exhibition, which will be open for a limited time in September, is set to the sound of the electronic drone choir NYX, promising people a way to view gemstones in an interesting way like never before. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Multi-sensory Installations:** Creating immersive experiences that engage multiple senses in installations for enhanced viewer engagement. - **Large-scale Projections:** Utilizing projection technology to magnify and showcase intricate details of objects on a grand scale, offering a new level of visual experience. - **Blurring Art and Design:** Exploring the intersection between art and design by incorporating abstract and imaginative elements into functional installations. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art Installations:** Using advanced techniques to create multi-sensory installations that challenge traditional concepts of art and engage viewers in unique ways. - **Projection Technology:** Developing innovative projection technology to showcase large-scale details and create immersive visual experiences in various industries. - **Gemstone Mining:** Leveraging immersive installations to bring gemstones to life and enhance consumer perception and appreciation of gemstone mining processes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Immersive Crystal Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/immersive-crystal-installation.md) - [Wonderous Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [Pearl-Centric Art Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giga-pearl.md) - [Tactile Material Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-world-sharp-edges.md) - [Immersive Jewelry Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiffany-wonder-exhibition.md) - [Voice-Informed Gemstones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/voice-gems.md) - [Boundless Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frameless-experience.md) - [Multi-Sensory Sound Installtions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feel-the-sound.md) - [Immersive Kinetic Glass Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kinetic-glass-installation.md)
