Talk about upcycling: This multimedia experience repurposes an abandoned Sears store at the Barton Creek mall to re-create the wonders of the Sistine Chapel some 6,000 miles from Vatican City. Sprawling out over 25,000 square feet, the Sistine Chapel Experience progresses through several galleries that offer historical context, insight into the work of masters like Michelangelo and Botticelli, and then an up-close view via a dropped-ceiling reproduction of the Sistine Chapel that’s identical in length and width to the real deal, based on photos taken by the production team over the course of 65 nights inside the chapel. – Kimberley Jones
