The Island (2015)
Absolut Art Bar @ Art Dubai
w/Arnar Asgeirsson
We were commissioned to design and program the Absolute Art Bar during Art Dubai 2015. We created a fake billboard mountain that looked like a 3rd structure from afar, it is only when you are close to it one discovers that it is a billboard held by a huge scaffolding that forms the bar and gathering space.
We invited different music bands and Djs to perform.
The Mountain stayed for a week.
