OOOPStudio, together with Carlo Cerri, curated the video scenography, reinterpreting the story with a contemporary approach. Through the use of technology, the studio transformed the scene into a poetic and dynamic environment, capable of evolving and adapting to the emotions and narrative movements of the choreography. Each projection was conceived as a visual extension of the story, creating atmospheres that range from the mystical to the dramatic, from inner conflict to reconciliation. The environments transform fluidly, moving from desert landscapes and dreamlike spaces to intricate abstract geometries, emphasizing the contrasts between King Shahriyar’s power and Scheherazade’s intellectual strength.

The world of art continues to be a fertile ground for innovation and the exploration of the boundaries of human imagination. One of the most innovative forms of art emerging in this context is projection mapping, which combines digital and architectural elements to create unique multisensory experiences. Finalist at Shining Shanghai Contest 2024.

Playful, creative, magical, colourful, choleric, goliardic, escaping from the conventional… with the video-scenography of Rossini & Rossini, realised in collaboration with Carlo Cerri, OOOPStudio closes its 2023 theatre season by giving/displaying/showcasing  a vision of the settings for the dance performance directed by choreographer Mauro Bigonzetti for the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, with live orchestra and singers.

With Bosco Mistico ZENONEcontemporanea presents in a art gallery the recent research of OOOPStudio, an immersive installation that will involve the public in an unsettling environment, set by a “new” nature that cannot fail to accompany us towards a profound reflection on the anxieties of our contemporary, dramatically marked from a degenerate relationship with the environment, in all its forms.

Str3am of Consciousn3ss: a Journey into the Digital Mind is a site-specific public installation created during the Milan Design Week 2023, displayed on a 8x14m led-wall in Piazza Sempione.

“The Fate of Phaeton” is the title of the video projection realized for the Cathedral of Modena, inspired by the Greek myth of the Son of the Sun, who drove his father’s chariot up to the sky to illuminate the Earth and then, striked by Zeus’ lightning, fell into the river Eridano, the Po.

“Let me just drive them for a day, so I can prove to you how worthy a son I am for so great a father… Please?

2022 –  Frames of Humanity is based on the combination and fusion between gender and people, a worldwide network of flows that originates from a single place and unifies different ethnic and cultural groups, becoming indistinguishable. Each single fragment becomes part of a single concept, that of humanity. Different shades and different identities are facets of a single sense, that of being.

In collaboration with the Japanese choreographer and dancer Kihako Narisawa, OOOPStudio created the video for Trajectory, a visual artwork conceived for the dance show that took place at Sadler’s Wells Theater in London, within the MOMENTUM program by Fabula Collective.

On 4 and 5 June 2022 Bosco Mistico arrived in Turin, on the occasion of Share Festival – Search Light, an event that promotes art and new technologies, directed and curated by Bruce Sterling and Jasmina Tesanovic.

“The most terrible of all terrible things is man”

It is a journey told by light, where the real and the imaginary overlap and chase each other, stimulated by a real technological short circuit.

The perception of the beholder is stimulated, absorbed and mocked by the deception of sight, by the illusion of real images that go beyond reality.

A material as hard as the stone of the Modena Cathedral, already molded in architectural and figurative forms, abandons its hardness and is transformed

Do humans need humans?
Digital humanism in the 21st century

In this edition of the Fête des Lumières 2021 – 8Lyon the theme reflects on the evolution of the relationship between human beings and technologies throughout history, in all sectors, including (new media) art.
So nowadays everyone is using technology, but do humans need humans or technology more?

Once again in collaboration with Carlo Cerri, and commissioned by the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, OOOPStudio designed the videos for the scenographies of Madina, a ballet show set to music by Fabio Vacchi, based on the original novel “La ragazza che non voleva morire” by Emmanuelle Villepin, starring Antonella Albano, prima ballerina of La Scala, and Roberto Bolle in the role of the villain.

The result is an original production with a contemporary aesthetic, designed by technology, but also rich in realism – albeit digitized – obtained through the use of natural elements existing in the current world, leaving very little space for abstraction which, where present, is reported in a minimalist, essential, clean way.

Where man cannot assert himself, there is an uncontaminated place, always present but forgotten. The wood, sacred and vital, accompanies us eternally like a silent witness, breathing next to us and going on with its productive cycle, even when, as the night falls, the city stops. Through every fibre and every inhabitant, animal or plant, nature keeps operating, making the magic of awakening possible.

Dutch Nationale Opera & Ballet (2021)  – The legend of Prometheus tells of the titan who stole fire from gods and brought it to men, thus giving rise to human existence. Because of this action of defiance and rebellion, Prometheus was chained by Zeus and sent into exile to the ends of the Earth…

The concept of belonging is based on the combination and fusion between gender and people, a topic that have always crossed the common space of our planet. This worldwide network of flows originates from a single place and unifies different ethnic groups, becoming indistinguishable, showing only single fragments that become part of a single concept, that of belonging.
