The Sculpture Comes To Life Thanks To Technology: First In The World

ADVERTISEMENT

The First Live Image Mapping On A Contemporary Sculpture:
For the first time in the world, a bronze sculpture comes to life: “Bozzolo” (Cocoon), on the most famous Rabarama’s operas. On the sculpture’s skin – coated in white for the occasion and without any incision – were screened in 3D some of the codes used by the artist, as if to merge the themes so dear to Rabarama on the skin of a single immobile body… ‘Art and technology go hand in hand towards a more common goal: to amaze!
Through the use of special projectors we were able to transfer the CG imagery on the sculpture. The result is stunning. The opera takes a second skin, which changes constantly in real-time.
With this latest achievement, the team has pushed its limits by designing a new projection system which has never been created before.
The sculpture was part of the ANTICOnforme exhibition by Rabarama in Florence, complex ‘Le Pagliere’ (via Machiavelli) and was visible for three months, until last September, 2011.

Rabarama

Rabarama is a sign of the times we are living, transposed into the "skin" of her humanoids. Her giant sculptures have appeared in the streets and public places of Florence, Beijing, Paris, London, Miami, Shanghai, Pisa, Venice and others, to ask the eternal question: "Who are you man?"and adding, "You are changing because of technology, science, knowledge. Do you want to ride the mutation or to be dominated? ".
