Prisma | VHILS

Alexandre Farto, aka Vhils, presents to the public, at maat – Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology, a monumental and unexpected proposal that uses exclusively video, a language that the Portuguese artist has been exploring more recently.

Prisma is an exhibition composed of a set of images representing everyday life in nine metropolises: Mexico City, Cincinnati, Hong Kong, Lisbon, Los Angeles, Macau, Paris, Beijing and Shanghai, where the artist has made, over the last few years, important works of public art.

This large-scale installation, with slow motion recordings projected onto screens that transform the Oval Gallery space into a convincing urban labyrinth, provides the visitor with a truly immersive experience, in a construction that manipulates and distorts effects of space, scale and light.
