Summary
James Turrell's 100th Skyspace, titled "As Seen Below – The Dome," is a permanent light installation at ARoS Aarhus Art Museum in Denmark. The 40-meter domed structure is built below ground with a grass-covered mound and a dark oculus that frames the Danish sky. Opened in January 2026 ahead of the museum's summer solstice opening in June 2026, it is Turrell's largest-ever Skyspace installation, drawing visitors underground to look upward at the sky.
