La Capella
Piera, Spain
July 30 – 2 August 2009
5,5 x 6 x 15 m
Invited by the organisers of Cerka’l Festival, Penique contributed an inflatable at the 16th century Gothic Capella de Sant Sebastià, Piera.
Transitional light was key to the exhibition so two main light sources were used. From opposite ends of the installation, a neon crucifix emitted a cool blue light, mixing with a contrasting warm pink hue produced by sunlight permeating the inflatable around the entrance.
Throughout the day, as light conditions changed and the two opposing light sources battled for dominance, a stunning transient blue-pink fade accentuated every crease and architectural detail of the inflatable.
