Penique productions travelled to México as a guest of the CutOut Fest
animation festival in order to carry out an intervention in the city of
Querétaro where the festival is held. The project took place at the Museo de la Ciudad, located in the former convent of San José de Gracia, and consisted of completely covering the building’s cloister.
The light transformed the piece depending on the time of day. In strong
sunlight, the installation was deep blue inside and the architecture
that enveloped it was tinted a shade of sky blue. At night, the warm
artificial light used in the gallery around the inflatable piece and the
spot light installed in the central fountain outlined the volumes in a
darker shade of blue.Entrevista para el CutOut Fest:
