Vivid Sydney 2026 featured “Laniakea”, a light installation by David Moraton in Sydney. It was installed at Customs House.

Reach beyond the stars with Laniakea , a cosmic saga named after the supercluster home to the Milky Way and 100,000 other galaxies. A three-act intergalactic epic projected onto Barangaroo House set to an original symphonic score by David Moraton . Ever notice that a hurricane’s eye resembles a swirling galaxy?
