Wave
Pablo Valbuena, for La Prairie · creation and control tools · 2019 · Art Basel Miami Beach
Our role Creation and control tools, light and LEDs, sound.
A walk-through installation of undulating columns, light and ambient sound, evoking light dancing on a wave. The ebb and flow of the ocean, drawn by the precise choreography of thousands of points of light.
Presented by La Prairie facing the ocean in Miami Beach, during Art Basel Miami Beach, on 6 December 2019: the first public artwork commissioned by the house.
It is part of our long collaboration with Pablo Valbuena: we design and develop his creation and control tools, the ones that let him compose light and sound in space the way you edit a film.
