Year: 2010
Client: YCN
Project: Installation for the YCN LIVE launch party at The Village Underground
Art Direction & Balloon Sculpture: Sinem Erkas & Rose Clarke
Blue LED lights code: Tinker

We filled an archway with giant weather balloons pulsating with blue light. Each balloon had a long ribbon and a tag giving information about one of the many events YCN had arranged for their 2 week event. The audience were encouraged to travel through the balloons and read the details of the events, and were given a balloon to take home at the end of the evening.

The overall experience was quite mystical! People commented on how by standing directly beneath and looking up into the under belly of the installation reminded them of staring up into a stormy sky with bursts of lightening. Others said it looked like a shoal of jelly fish seen in the moonlight.
