Bottled Puma

Bottled Puma

We have been working in partnership with the artist Bordalo ii since 2019 to develop various pieces that combine art with creative technology.

The idea to develop this piece came about in collaboration with the artist. Here, transformation is the conceptual matrix of creation, with a view to sustainability. The combination of waste and technology is the basis of the various technical challenges the artist sets us.

A set of discarded plastic bottles gave rise to a giant screen. This piece was on display at the artist’s “Evilution” exhibition in Lisbon. The project started with a small prototype made up of a few bottles. A long testing phase culminated in the placement of addressable LEDs inside the bottles and the transformation of each bottle into a pixel. Subsequently, using LED controller software, we turned this piece into a screen, capable of displaying patterns, images or videos.

Inserted in an exhibition whose basic concept is the impact of waste on the preservation of animal species, the video applied to this piece represents the head of a puma in motion with its gaze fixed on the viewer. The work was installed in a room together with several other large-format works also depicting animals made up of “pixels” of waste.

Due to the size of the installations, the images gain a better perspective the further away you look or through smartphone cameras, bringing a new type of interaction to the room.a
