Rainbow Made From Cars

Seen at the international arts festival in Germany is the art installation called “Flurstücke 011″ and it was made by Generik Vapeur and while it was taken a few years ago now it is still one of my favourite images.

Artistic duo Alain Guerra and Neraldo de la Paz from Cuba make some of the most amazing art instillations from recycled clothing you will ever see and this rainbow is one of them and one of their best in my opinion.

6 – Rubbish Rainbow


Alejandro Durán is one of those people who really does car about the planet and the rubbish that gets dumped into the oceans. So me makes various art sculptures in the Biosphere Reserve called “Washed Up.” good for him and it is certainly a beautiful way of getting the message across.

Made by Bill FitzGibbons this rainbow tunnel of light installation called ‘LightRails’ makes an otherwise boring road tunnel something to smile about. Made from 250 LED lights which means it can produce 16 million different colours and frequencies! Every tunnel should have this installed.

Created by Aspen Mays this colourful book rainbow sculpture called ‘Every Book’ (as in under the rainbow) is her way of paying homage to Albert Einstein‘s theories by incorporating each of Einstein’s books.

Not only is this the world’s longest bridge fountain, but it is also got 200 lights that illuminate the fountain sending rainbow-coloured jets of water in the air in synchronization with music! Not so much a bridge, more a show in its own right!

2 – Smear Campaign


Best not done one anyone else’s car other than your own is this way to create a full arch rainbow. This one made by Rotterdam artist Helmut Smits is one of the most viral art images you will ever see and is features on thousands of websites, often with the motivational message of “smile.”

Rainbow Made From Threads


1 – Pulled Tight


It might look like it is made from a prism of some sort, but in truth it is made from thousands of strands of strained coloured threads! When made tight and coloured to look like a rainbow the effect is truly amazing.
