Event Details

Stand at the edge of everything, as Spanish artist Javier Riera transforms the façade of Custom House with a meditative projection that unearths the geometric patterns and world that underpin our world. 

Inspired by nature’s geometric designs, such as a shell’s spirals following the Fibonacci sequence or the hexagonal structure of a honeycomb, The Fringe of Infinity sweeps between these patterns, which interplay with Customs House and play with our sense of perception.

Set to a resonant score by musician, producer and sound designer Luminecho (aka Rivera’s son), The Fringe of Infinity revels in the beauty of mathematical perfection – and invites us to imagine what else we might miss in our day-to-day lives.
