The balloon becomes part of the existing architecture as the air presses against the plastic to outline the solid shapes of the room. The space is transformed through this new texture, light, and a monochrome color. We’re longtime fans of the ephemeral installations of Penique Productions. They’ve created a surreal series of single-color rooms. The collective, which was started in Barcelona in 2007, picks each site, then sets up a massive inflatable plastic balloon which expands to fill the entire space.
