How can we improve one of the most beautiful landscapes in São Paulo? By creating an installation as beautiful as the view itself! That's what's happening at Praça do Pôr do Sol, in Alto de Pinheiros, São Paulo.

Conceived and executed by Uruguayan visual artist Fernando Velázquez, the installation Miragem invades the Square as part of the SP_Urban Digital Festival 2018. The idea is for the work to blend in with its surroundings and also create a contrast of nature versus technology, light versus shadow.

The Mirage is made up of a semi-arch made of LED strips. The structure is 19 m long and 70 cm wide. The audiovisual content changes according to the natural light, interacting with the intensity of the day and the colors of the sky. .
