Think Mother Nature makes rainbows? Think again.

Michael Jones McKean, an American artist known for creating large-scale sculptural installations, has actually created a rainbow-making machine.

While his art tends to deal withv issues of narration, complexity, representation, materiality and failure, it seems the former resident at the Bemis Center and now a professor at the Virginia Commonwealth University has taken on a lighter hearted subject. His rainbow making machine creates artificial rainbows using natural materials. McKean has experimented with the machine in parking lots for years and is now preparing for a larger installation at the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts in Omaha, Nebraska.

I wonder if anyone has told Corporate at Skittles yet…
