From December 6th to 8th, 2024, Miami will host Reflective Surfaces, a digital art exhibition that explores the perception of reality through works that interact with the surrounding environment. The exhibition will take place aboard a boat docked at 401 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL 33132, directly across from the Skyviews Miami Observation Wheel, with the ocean serving as a natural backdrop. The waves, the light playing on the water, and the movement of the boat create a unique environment, becoming an integral part of the visual and conceptual experience of the exhibition.
The location of the exhibition, which blends the fluidity of digital art with the natural element of the sea, is not just a stage but becomes an actor in the artistic process itself. The reflective surfaces of the works interact with the surrounding environment: the reflection of waves crashing against the boat, the sunset light reflecting on the water, and the constant movement of the vessel, all offer a complete sensory experience. Each digital piece merges with the dynamism of the water and the breath of the sea, guiding the audience toward a new understanding of the concept of "flow" and continuous transformation.
In this context, digital art is not limited to representation; it becomes a real-time interpretation of nature and the human experience. The undulating movement of the sea, which passes through and reflects the boat's surfaces, transforms each moment into a new visual reading. The exhibition invites visitors to reflect on how art, like water, slips and transforms constantly, responding to every subtle change in its surroundings. In a play of light, shadow, and waves, each piece becomes an unstoppable flow of meaning.
The boat, suspended between sea and sky, is the perfect place to explore the concept of reflective surfaces. Each artwork becomes a changing reflection in dialogue with the water and the movement of the boat — a surface that is never static but constantly evolving. The experience is not only visual but also emotionally immersive, as visitors are enveloped by the sound of the waves and the ever-changing marine environment.
Reflective Surfaces ultimately represents a fusion of digital art and the natural environment, where fluidity is not merely a theoretical concept but a tangible reality permeating every aspect of the exhibition. The sea and the waves lapping against the boat become the very body of the art—a reminder of a world in constant flux, where every reflection is destined to fade and be reborn in an endless cycle.
