The second piece, Engine Horizon, invites guests to walk up to a swirling staircase for an isolated experience revealing a panoramic view of a sunset scene from afar. The immense view is brought to life through generative brushstrokes, giving the viewer the unique opportunity to see the real world through the eyes of a program.
