About the Work
1. Animals
Location: Landing at Leidesdorff, 565 Commercial St.
The concept is inspired by the winter animal world. A magical winter landscape accompanies the journey from the South Pole to the North Pole, featuring different animals in winter background along the way.
2. Frozen Water
Location: Pacific Coast Stock Exchange, 301 Pine St.
Designed around the snowflake and ice concept, the basic focus of the projection design is looking closely at the beauty of snow and frozen water particles from a microscopic level.
3. Plants
Location: Hobart Building, 582 Market St.
The visual motif is nature displaying plants in winter settings with bursts of light and particles to capture the feeling of joy and celebration.
