Every Wing Has a Silver Lining: A Captivating Art Installation on Norwegian Viva

In one of its bars, the new Norwegian Cruise Line ship will have a 52-foot-long interactive digital art work. The Metropolitan Bar on Norwegian Viva will feature Dominic Harris’ ‘Every Wing Has a Silver Lining’ when it begins sailing Mediterranean itineraries in August. Silver-winged butterflies with responsive wings are depicted in the artwork.

According to Sarah Hall Smith, Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings art director, “I hope that guests feel as mesmerised interacting with Dominic’s art as I do.”

The sculpture, Harris’ largest to date, was created especially for Viva, Norwegian Prima’s sister ship.

Gary Anslow, senior director of sales for Norwegian for the UK and Ireland, called the work “breathtaking,” adding, “We believe that art can be a transformative element in the guest experience.”

Harris said: “I want each viewer to feel that their interaction with ‘Every Wing has A Silver Lining’ is an exhilarating dance with something vast, powerful, and truly significant.”
