The immensely popular [video game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-forever) launched in the 80’s, which involves placing [simple shapes to form rows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-fully-loaded), has been brought to life in Sydney, Australia. I have an insatiable urge to jump up and spin the shapes so they land in-line precisely on the lane-way. Artists, Ella Barclay, Adrianne Tasker, Ben Backhouse and Kelly Robson created this [cool installation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-triennale-museum) for the Gaffa Gallery. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Giant Illuminated Installations:** The trend of creating giant illuminated installations in public spaces to capture attention and create unique experiences. - **Physical Interpretations of Video Games:** The trend of creating physical interpretations of popular video games for installations. - **Interactive Art Installations:** The trend of creating interactive art installations to engage and entertain visitors. ### Where This Applies - **Art Galleries:** Art galleries can create unique experiences for their visitors by incorporating interactive art installations. - **Event Production:** Event production companies can incorporate giant illuminated installations into their events to create a memorable and engaging experience. - **Theme Parks:** Theme parks can incorporate physical interpretations of popular video games such as Tetris into their attractions to engage visitors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Game-Inspired Playable Puzzle Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-solid.md) - [Nostalgic Light Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/litebrite-worlds-of-wonder.md) - [Puzzle Video Game Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sara-hyat-tetris-sofa.md) - [Block Game Collaborative Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-collaboration.md) - [Drink-Shaped Gaming Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gaming-devices.md) - [Video Game-Like Bookcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-bookcase.md) - [Chicken Nugget-Shaped Gaming Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-device.md) - [Retro Arcade-Themed Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hundreds-and-tetris.md) - [Celebratory Stacking Game Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-forever.md)
