Projection Paints Dazzling 3D Surface Onto Building

In a brilliant work of perspectival illusion, the projection artists at Urbanscreen have transformed O. M. Unger’s Galerie der Gegenwart in Hamburg into a surreal plane of shifting form. The project, inspired by the concept of a “dreaming” building, truly does ascribe a sort of material consciousness to the structure’s facade; giant hands press and pull bricks apart and around, walls collapse and expand, and vivid multicolored forms swirl and merge. The optical effects are fantastic to behold via the video alone; we can only imagine what the experience would be like in person.
