I felt my heart skip a beat when I reached the top.......

 

Museo Soumaya -The spiral walk way to the top floor is windowless. When you get to the top of the ramp you just stop  - and gaze. The light from the centered skylight light backlights the exhibit and acts like a veil. As you walk onto the exhibit floor the sculptures are revealed. The light makes the whole room glow and every piece seems to be the prominent piece of the exhibit. The entire floor is open and dedicated to the museums sculpture collection. I could not stop thinking how the artist in this collection must be smiling to have their sculptures exhibited in this museo.There was a certain peacefulness to the area. It was like the calmness you feel alone in the wilderness surrounded by beauty. 

 I have several photos and videos to post from this exhibit and will try to post one every morning until I run out of good shots. I will post my of favorites Saturday morning.
