THE BLANKET
Burning Man 2019
Ever since we were children and throughout our life we share the space under the blanket with lovers, friends and family. Under the Blanket there are no strangers.

The Blanket is a very light and strong BoPET polyester film canvas 100 by 100 meters, made of 3.350 NASA Space blankets (2,1x1,6 m. each), held together with 40 km of reinforced tape.
The Blanket will be constantly changing its silhouette by the power of wind, taking different surreal forms – waves, mountains or some giant fantastic sculptures

The silver side of the Blanket is coated with metallic agent that reflects up to 97% of the radiated heat. During the hot daytime room under the Blanket will be used as a comfy and refreshing rest area, where anyone can relax, chill, have a nap or dance.
THE CURTAIN
«THE CURTAIN» installation is a mirror canvas 50 by 50m, assembled from 5,000 balloons inflated with helium.

Under the influence of the wind, the installation constantly changes shape, transforming into a vast kinetic sculpture. The ephemeral, airborne structure—seemingly emerging from a parallel dimension—becomes an extension of the surrounding landscape. During the day the installation provides shade where festival visitors can rest, and at night the canvas serves as a giant projection screen for video art.
