For our first Public Art installation, we collaborated with James Earley in Haymarket Square in Smithfield, Dublin.
BRIEF
Combining our expertise in immersive technologies with Earley’s mural work to create a large-scale interactive work, that would be alive for 5 nights.
THE IDEA
The main theme explored by the piece is the repetitive, cyclical nature of history through the lens of the life of an artistic work. We turned a pane of glass facing the mural into an interactive touchscreen, which participants used to manipulate the visuals within the scenes. An original score by Simon Cullen was composed to complement the piece making it a complete immersive experience.
RESULT
The mural was very popular with the public in person and on social media, and won an Allianz ‘Business to Arts’ Award in 2019.
