Residents of New York City got the treat of a lifetime from November 26 to 28 when a laser rainbow lit up their night sky.
The installation was located on top of Manhattan’s Standard Hotel and stretched from Manhattan all the way to Brooklyn for an impressive 35 mile stretch.
It is officially titled “Rainbow After the Storm” and was conceptualized by German artist, Yvette Mattern, as a way to let New Yorkers feel a sense of peace and calm after the tragedies they have suffered at the hands of Hurricane Sandy.
The installation has actually previously been displayed across Europe, including at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London and has been a symbol of hope and unity among all humans regardless of their race, class or culture.
