VIVID FESTIVAL
SYDNEY 2011
The Vivid Festival chose Superbien to light up the Sydney Opera House with an immersive mapping installation during the 2011 edition of the festival.
(About the project)
The Vivid Festival, an annual Australian event combining light, music and ideas, invited Superbien to transform the Sydney Opera House with a monumental visual installation. The event celebrates innovative technologies and immersive creativity.
Superbien designed a dreamlike, kinetic visual mapping that redefined the iconic architecture of the Sydney Opera House.
(Creative response)
Exploiting the triangular shape of the building designed by Jørn Utzon, Superbien composes animated projections in which luminous fans unfold, punctuated by flashing multicoloured eyes. The result is a poetic and spectacular large-scale fresco.
An installation praised for its visual poetry, technical innovation and significant contribution to the 2011 Vivid Festival.
(Result & Impact)
The Opera House becomes a living screen, captivating thousands of visitors who come to watch the 10 day projection. The project establishes Superbien as a major player in large-scale immersive experiences.
