A breathing museum, a museum that breathes.

Andetag is an immersive art museum built around woven optical fiber textile, a material that carries light through its threads. The artworks pulse slowly, synchronized to a shared rhythm transmitted over the internet to sibling pieces scattered from Seattle to Costa Rica to Portugal. Every work inhales and exhales together, at the same moment, across the world.

The name is Swedish for "a breath." The word breaks down to ande (spirit) and tag (take).

The centerpiece is a large-scale installation where visitors are invited to sit or lie down on soft carpets beneath the glowing textile forms. Original music plays in surround sound, 90 minutes of compositions designed to move in sync with the light and the breath. The effect is physical: color shifts through the fabric, the room dims and swells, and the body tends to follow.
