'Unfold' at Vivid Sydney 2019

Unfold is a projection mapping artwork inspired by paradise birds and their colourful rituals of dance and courtship.
During VividSydney 2019, the façade of the cultural center ‘The Concourse’ transformed every evening for 23 days. 

Big thanks to the artist collective Limelight for selecting me as a part of their projection mapping talent program. It was truly a pleasure to learn and travel together.


Artist: Willem Mertens (Belgium)
Collaborators: Limelight Academy Masterclass

With its concert hall, library, cultural centre and more, The Concourse has the ability to inspire and uplift us. The architecture aspires to connect what’s inside a building with the outside world. Unfold gives shape to this desire.
It’s façade create a wrap-around immersive experience for the audience, leaving a strong impression of being enveloped by the building.
