SUMMARY:Shape Your World: Beacon Park Interactive Experience ft. Optik Installation
DESCRIPTION:Uncover your own perspective and dive deeper in to how you shape the world and the environment we all share. Curated by the Downtown Detroit Partnership\, the experience highlights the ongoing commitment to bring creativity and community to Downtown Detroit. With a venue theme of “Light\, Energy and Motion” and an approach rooted in functional design\, environmental responsibility\, public accessibility and community\, DTE Energy’s Beacon Park is proud to host the Optik installation during 2025 Detroit Month of Design.  \nFrom September 3 – October 5\, 2025\, from 6 a.m. – 10 p.m.\, Beacon Park will transform into a vibrant space filled with lights\, abstract sounds\, melodic music and curated cocktails and mocktails by Lumen Detroit\, all in an open-air setting\, designed to create a one-of-a-kind experience for Downtown Detroit visitors and design enthusiasts.  Optik is an interactive installation that invites individuals to play with their surroundings and discover new perspectives on everyday environments. The installation features ten gyroscope-like structures each standing six feet (1.8 meters) tall. At the center of each structure is a dichroic film that reflects sunlight during the day and refracts the inner ring’s lighting at dusk\, creating a constantly shifting display of color and light. As the audience rotates each unit\, they create their own endless cascade of colors. The experience is amplified as sound joins the movement\, turning each unit into a different musical instrument.    \nThrough movement and reflection of light\, each of these colorful units encourages the public to engage with another unit and other people within the space\, sparking spontaneous conversations\, dance parties\, jam sessions\, light shows and to finally see each and everyone’s true color.  Optik transports people away from their daily routine and into a state of play. It is no longer just a photogenic monument within a space; it becomes a communal hub for social connection.

SUMMARY:"The Last Ocean" Interactive Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Join us from September 20 – 26 to experience this year’s art installation – “The Last Ocean” by Jen Lewin\n \n“The Last Ocean” is an expansive landscape of interactive platforms created from reclaimed ocean plastic\, evocative of a luminescent ice field composed of beautiful geometric tessellations. This is a work that not only seeks to inspire and educate\, but also – through the use of reclaimed ocean plastic – to impact the recovery of our oceans and our planet.\n \n“The Last Ocean”\, created by American contemporary artist\, Jen Lewin\, explores the crisis of plastic pollution in our oceans\, a warming planet\, dwindling natural resources\, and the need for aggressive systemic change. How do we address and mitigate the issues our planet faces as a global community?\n \nDuring the day\, the platforms of “The Last Ocean” will highlight the transformation of reclaimed ocean plastic with a swirled surface of blue and white particulate.\n \nAt night\, “The Last Ocean” will glow with vibrant animated light\, cycling through a diverse palette of carefully curated colors as visitors interact with the work. Participants will splash and dance in waves of light\, illuminating the organic and powerful nature of our oceans.\n \nThis installation of “The Last Ocean” is unique\, with a Beacon Park-specific installation slowly dissipating as the piece is exhibited\, conveying the idea of this fragile ecosystem deteriorating over time.\nFor the best viewing experience\, we recommend checking it out at night!
