Senseless?

Robot? A 4-wheeled graffiti machine, with a pendulum arm that creates random strokes. Not Senseless – just automated beautiful.

Light sculpture

What happens when you use foam, wood, plaster, video projection? A light sculpture. Dimensions? Approx 8′ diameter. View the Parmenides I by Dev Harlan.

Echo Temple

The Audience Became the Band. The smiles of the audience pouring through the Echo Temple were an amazing payoff for all the hard work. People danced and played all day, reacting and smiling in wonder as their movements shaped the music around them.

As the day grew on, the crowd got bigger and more energetic, ending with a massive party.

A collaboration between Moving Pictures and Mother, NY.

Strata #4

Strata #4 is a multi-channel immersive video-installation commissioned by Palais de Beaux Arts in Lille. The subject of this work is a series of iconic pieces from the museum’s Flemish collection, focusing specifically on Rubens’ and Van Dyck’s grand altarpieces.

Strata #4 is the result of a study and exploration of the paintings themselves, delving beneath their figurative appearance and looking at the very rules behind the composition, colour schemes and proportions of each piece. It is a precise process aimed at creating new contemporary images based on universal rules of beauty and perfection.

Imagineered by Quayola. Be amazed!
