"A massive new installation, Jacob Hashimoto: Giant Arc, is transforming the free public Roberts Family Gallery at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art into a floating canopy of color, pattern, and light. The piece is made from more than 75,000 bamboo-and-paper kites suspended from floor to ceiling, creating a cloud-like environment that feels part sky, part dreamscape."
"Artist Jacob Hashimoto is known for building enormous immersive worlds out of tiny, carefully crafted components, and this is the largest installation of his career. For this project, he also designed thousands of new kite patterns inspired by the Bay Area's landscapes and history, giving the work a distinctly local touch."
"Jacob Hashimoto: Giant Arc opens August 22, 2026 and will float indefinitely inside SFMOMA's free public Roberts Family Gallery, so you can visit anytime after it debuts."
