Featured Project As part of an expansive exhibition of his work, titled Particular Matter(s), The Shed commissioned Tomás Saraceno to construct a new artwork, which would take full advantage of their soaring multipurpose space, The McCourt. Free the Air: How to hear the universe in a spider/web, was a 95-foot pressurized sphere, inside which visitors lay on a taught web-like net floating 40-feet above the ground, in order to experience vibrations derived from the movement of particles in the air, similar to the way spiders relay information through vibratory mechanisms.
