One of the ongoing attractions at the [Standard Hotel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inked-out) in [Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caf-goldie) is the giant glass box in the lobby that is typically occupied by a beautiful woman; Melissa Manning’s ‘Out There’ turns this unofficial art piece into an official installation.

In conjunction with The Look Partnership, Melissa Manning turned the Standard Hotel in Hollywood’s glass box into a [Wild West](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-meadow) diorama replete with wood panels, a lantern, tumbleweeds, and a giant desert scene. Take a look at the gallery above to get a few glimpses of this eerily beautiful (and slightly voyeuristic) piece.
