"The Color Inside" is a James Turrell Skyspace — a small circular room with an oval aperture open to the sky — located in a semi-subterranean pavilion on the UT campus. Turrell's Skyspaces create a visual experience in which the framed sky appears to hover at the level of the ceiling, its colour seemingly painted rather than real. Looking through the oval opening into the sky above is one of those rare perceptual experiences that cannot be adequately described.
The most intense experience is at the scheduled sunrise and sunset "light events," when programmed LED lighting shifts the apparent colour of the interior walls in carefully timed sequence with the changing sky. Outside these events the room is open during regular hours and free to enter; the light events themselves require a timed ticket. The pavilion is on the UT campus between the Blanton Museum and the Ransom Center.
