About Us:
The Lumonics Mind Spa is a concept developed by Dorothy Tanner (1923-2020) who wanted her light sculptures and those of her late husband Mel to be experienced as a total art installation that fosters a state of comfort, relaxation, and creativity.
Lumonics is among the earliest and longest-running light art projects in the U.S. We have an archive of over 50 years of light art to select for your location. We also provide original video art and music to complement the light sculptures to create an expanded multi-sensory experience.
Dorothy Tanner was the recipient of the Denver Mayor’s Award for Innovation in the Arts when she was 95. You can watch the video on this page that was produced by Denver Arts & Venues and presented on Rocky Mountain PBS.
For public exhibits, we will work with you to design a Lumonics Mind Spa to meet your particular needs and goals. Previous and current installations have designated hours that are open to the public. It can also be used for performances, presentations, classes, social gatherings, and meetings.
