Project description: I worked in one of the pieces of the artist Rómulo Royo. He was working in the concept of being a siamese twin which bring together the need to share even though there may be friction between them.

The idea about the light installation was the hypothetical conversation if they were separated. The sculpture represents the reality whereas the hologram simulation represents the hypothetical separation. The laser is used as a metaphor to make the inevitable connection visible.

My role was to come up with the best technical solution for creating a holographic simulation as well as being responsible for the entire installation's light design. We created and evaluated different aesthetic possibilities by exploring and testing different materials.
