RAINBOW DREAMS by Hiromi Tango
An immersive wellness experience. Presented by Luminato Festival and Brookfield Properties.
The Experience
Amid the rush of the day, find a moment to pause, play, and reconnect. Three vibrant, site-specific environments infused with Hiromi Tango [hyperlink on web]’s signature rainbow aesthetic invite you to explore pathways toward well-being. These installations are designed to spark joy, movement, and reflection, reminding us that mental health is an active, creative practice. Internationally acclaimed artist Hiromi Tango brings her transformative vision to Toronto for the first time in North America. Drawing from her extensive body of work, these environments feature designs uniquely inspired by Toronto’s striking glass towers and dynamic energy, offering spaces of color, playfulness, and mindfulness. In collaboration with neuroscientist Dr. Emma Burrows, Tango transforms the rainbow into more than just a symbol- it becomes a practice, nurturing the most valuable space we own: the one square foot between our ears.
MOVE with Rainbow Wheel at Brookfield Place
Step into the Wheel, where movement becomes meditation. As your motion sets a spinning rainbow in motion, discover how physical activity can create moments of presence and clarity.
WONDER with Rainbow Garden at Bay Adelaide Centre
Immerse yourself in Garden, a whimsical landscape of oversized rainbow flowers and interactive elements. This gentle wonderland invites you to embrace playfulness as a source of joy and renewal.
PAUSE with Rainbow Calm at First Canadian Place
Rainbow Calm was inspired when Hiromi learned the origin of the name Toronto which is from a Mohawk language word “Tkaranto,” meaning “Trees Standing in Water”. Inspired by the beautiful Lake Ontario, Hiromi worked with local artist Lisa Quail to create a space that will feature a large space of blue rainbows, and an installation of suspended “trees” nearby. Hiromi also worked with Henry Collins to develop a musical response to the location based on the geographical features of the lake such as the depth of the water. The hope this space will invite you to rest, pause and engage with stillness as you consider the lake nearby.
Throughout the festival special activations, guided meditations, creative workshops, and gentle movement sessions offer new ways to engage with these nurturing spaces.
