How Meow Wolf Turned “Immersive Art Experiences” Into Big Business
The House of Eternal Return is a neon assault on the senses—in some ways similar to Yayoi Kusama’s mirrored rooms of fantastic gourds—reminiscent of a ghost train at a local funfair, only on a larger scale. Meow Wolf, the collective behind the installation, built everything themselves. Most artworks are touchable, many are interactive and the scale of the installation (20,000 square feet) is such that hours slip by before people emerge, blinking and overstimulated, into the outside world.
