Nature-Based Animations Projected 

on São Miguel Island by VJ Suave



Artists Ygor Marotta and Ceci Soloaga of VJ Suave were recently invited to participate in the Walk&Talk art residency on São Miguel Island, Azores, Portugal. 


The duo transformed their projected street art animations to happily dance across the trees, cliffs, and shores of the the island including the Lagoa das Empadadas, Porto da Ribeirinha, Cachoeira do Cabrito and Lagoa das Sete Cidades. Using long exposure, VJ Suave captured their interventions with nature, creating the videos and GIFs seen here.

                          Yesterday's Step-by-Step

I wanted to do a collage for a very special 11 year old, Nova's birthday. She is a thoughtful, kind and loving young lady. With her own money, she bought shoes that turn into skates. So when the opportunity arises, like eating out, dinner was over but the adults kept talking, she skated around the empty restaurant. I love Nova!

And, to start on the skates, shoe are my favorite.

I added more details and outlined with a marker. 

Added letters. Matted & Framed.
