11TH AFRICAN GAMES IN BRAZZAVILLE OPENING CEREMONY

For the opening ceremony of the 11th African Games, Superbien highlights the history of Congo through a synchronized and symbolic mapping.

(About the project)

The African Games are returning to Congo, the historic birthplace of the event, in a highly emotional context. Superbien has designed a contemplative fresco tracing the evolution of Congolese civilization, from the first tribes to modernity, through colonization and independence.

(Creative response)

Superbien deploys a colorful tableau projected onto large moving panels, thanks to a real-time tracking system. This visual staging interacts with dancers and extras, creating a theatrical arabesque along the Congo River, a narrative and poetic thread.

A vibrant visual tribute that celebrates the history of the Congo and the multicultural scope of the African Games.

(Result & Impact)

The project highlights key moments in the history of the Congo through moving mapping, synchronized with a lively performance. It emphasizes the shared energy and multicultural exchanges that animate this edition of the African Games, back in their homeland.
