moving side by side
This installation, placed at the entrance of a very busy cultural institution in São Paulo, was the first to focus entirely on lamps as graphic elements and icons of the passing city landscape. The previous identity of the Perceptible installations, characterized by white structures and white fabric, was now substituted by all black fabric and structures.
The two corridors had two different lamp positions: one of them had the lamps connected to the pillars, allowing spectators to cross it while activating the sensors inside; the other had several groups of lamps hanging from the ceiling in progressively darkening tones of blue and varying size sequencing lines. This second corridor could not be crossed, and its sensors were placed in the surrounding room to allow the parallel transit of people to activate the different lamp sequences.
This installation was shown at the “Rumos” exhibition at the Instituto Itaú Cultural in São Paulo, in March 2006.
