holographic installation in sydney

Opening Friday 28 December 2007 starts 8 pm, we'll finish around 10. (a group of us will be starting at Don't Look and then heading to Make a Difference)
Exhibition previously on in Newtown precinct, New South Wales,
These incredible life-size holograms blend digital and optical technology to present holographic images that stretch beyond reality. The subtly animated images capture two figures, hesitantly emerging from a digitally generated holographic scene. As you approach they beckon you into their enchanting world, yet remain forever elusive, suspended in light.

Unfurl is the result of a collaboration between holographic artist Martina Mrongovius and garment designer Sruli Recht. The holograms were commissioned by Experimenta for the 2005 ‘Vanishing Point’ exhibition and produced with the assistance of Mark Ruff, Ged Wright and Dr John Perry.
