Interactive Installation

ATLAS (mathematics): In geometry, an atlas refers to charts that represent and describe a manifold; a type of topologic space. A single particle exists and is understood in its local proximity by the rules of Euclidean spaces of dimensions, where globally speaking the manifold might not.

ATLAS (experience): Is a metaphoric representation of complexities of the multidimensional reality of life. Dimensions, that in their most abstract form, are thoughts and notions, that we humans are as catalyst in a process in which thoughts become realities that shape life.

ATLAS (Scotiabank Nuit Blanche): Is an interactive spatial experience where, based on visitor's movements, the façade changes its appearance.
