Moon Phases

Five-crescent installation · Bali

Five large white crescent-moon sculptures arranged in a row at a Bali lifestyle hotel. Daytime architecture; nightfall ritual — the studio composed the multimedia choreography that activates the crescents in sequence, projection-mapped from new moon to full moon to crowd.

  1. Brief

    Activate five large crescent-moon sculptures at a Bali lifestyle hotel — daytime architecture, nightfall ritual.

  2. Approach

    Treat the five crescents as a single ensemble. By day, white form against palms. By night, projection-mapped phases.

  3. Outcome

    A nightly composition synchronised across five surfaces — earth and fire palette, audio-reactive choreography for events.

  4. Challenges

    Outdoor projection-mapping at scale in tropical humidity. Each crescent had to read independently and as part of the set.

  5. Result

    A signature multimedia anchor for the venue's events programme. Visible from across the property after dark.

Moon Phases at night — a figure in sunglasses framed by laser smoke, the five crescent moons lit warm orange behind, mirrored on the wet floor.

Moon Phases is five large crescent sculptures standing in a row at a Bali lifestyle hotel. By day, they read as architecture against the palms. By night, the studio's composition wakes them — projection-mapped sequences that step the audience through phase after phase.

I · Daytime sculpture

By day, the installation is restraint: five clean white crescents on a low platform, framed by hotel architecture and tropical palms. The studio's equipment lives behind the rig; the sculptures are the protagonists.

Daytime — five crescent sculptures arrayed in front of the hotel facade, palms framing the entrance.
Detail — three crescents seen from below, blue sky and palms above.

II · Nightfall ritual

After dusk the discipline reverses. Five projection sequences run in synchrony — earth-and-fire palette, drifting smoke, choreography tuned to the room's audio. Each crescent reads independently and as part of the set; the ensemble traces a phase-by-phase ceremony around the platform.

Nightfall — five crescents lit deep blue with projected texture, smoke drifting low across the platform, two silhouettes framed in the central crescent.

III · Process

The crescents arrived as raw white form. The studio composed the multimedia language on top — projection geometry calibrated per surface, content sequences synchronised across all five, audio integrated so guests pass through the work rather than watching it.

Daytime — the studio team in T-pose beneath the crescents during alignment.
