The Window

A Portal To The Infinite

The Window acts as both entry point and introduction. The massive circular screen stretched across the ceiling, uses state-of-the-art technology to reimagine the oculus, an ancient architectural device, a window to another world. The Window acts as the transition space between the outside world and the world within the walls of Mercer Labs. 

The iconic Nike reimagined through the intersection of robotics and human imagination. A massive sculpture of The Nike in the center, and a robotic arm above. The robot reconstructs this ancient masterpiece in 3D, producing impossible iterations that challenge traditional methods of creation. The work reflects the tension between humanity and machine, exploring the evolving nature of artistic expression in an era where technology extends the boundaries of possibility.
