Dream Up

Dream Up

Time, Dream, Illusion, Metaphysics and Surrealism.

Nick Maltese Studio realize ‘Dream Up’ for Milan Design Week 2024. The four plastic installations takes visitors on a thought-provoking journey, playing with colour and unprecedented, dreamy schemes.

The installations were Sybil (Via Durini), Source of Freedom (Corso Monforte), Space Walker (Piazza San Babila) and Deep City Life (Piazza San Babila) and Moby Dick (Via Mascagni corner Visconte di Modrone)

We create five different QR codes for each installation that referred to augmented reality instagram filters that continued the symbolism of the tangible works created by Nick Maltese.

Each one explores a particular aspect of the dream, linking it to the problems of the planet’s survival.

Nucleus

Nucleus

Art installation that symbolizing water’s fluidity and its vital connections.

The installation features an icosahedron, a geometric form famous for its symmetry and its connection to water in Platone’s ‘Timeo’.

The shape of the sculpture captures the movement and fluidity of water, a reminder of how this element is constantly shaping life around us.

Using a form that is both ancient and mathematically significant, ‘Nucleus’ bridges the gap between the origins of geometry and the crucial role water plays in our lives today.

Eggs

Eggs

Art Installation that explores the connection between man and insect.

Eggs is an art installation that, through an evocative mix of lights and symbols, refers to insect eggs, a symbol of rebirth and transformation.

Thanks to a heartbeat sensor, the lights pulsate in unison with the visitors’ hearts, creating a synergetic and immersive experience.

Art and technology come together to create an emotional and multi-sensory experience that invites the public to reflect on the relationship between man and nature, between light and shadow, between life and rebirth.

Alfa Romeo F-1

Alfa Romeo F-1

An emotionally charged minute.
A dynamic show of light and sound design during a series of Alfa Romeo Orlean F1 Team season presentation reserved for partners.

The presentation of the official single-seater is an important appointment for the Team involved in the Formula 1 championship.

To achieve the desired result we concentrated on enhancing the customised details of the car with references to the brand identity through the choice of colours and the movement of the lights and the creation of the customised sound design with a strong emotional intensity.

These are the magic ingredients of this light design project.
