Artist Mariko Mori’s Huge Light-Up Phallus
The ultimate Christmas light: Techie-slash-artist Mariko Mori’s Tom Na H-iu is a fifteen-foot meditative beast of interwoven LED lighting, hidden neatly within a gracefully minimalist — albeit phallic — glass capsule. See Mori’s other large-scale sculptures at Deitch’s Wooster Street location through January. —Rachel Wolff
