Recently a made a few mapping projections on the building “Beau Rivage” in the city of Loutraki (Greece) which hosted an exhibition which was nicely prepared and they have put a lot of work in.

I kicked in for the second part of the festival, and stayed a few evenings. The projections were done with two pojectors next to each other in a panorama setup. The visuals were created on site in a performance with my usual style. See a few captures below of the ongoing refinements.
