SELECTED WORK

OFFF BARCELONA ’26

MOTION

A frame-by-frame animation for The Screen, the mapping show of OFFF Barcelona 2026.

A gym drawn by hand, one frame at a time, and stretched across the façade of a building.

The animation, full width. Frame-by-frame, 61 seconds, loop.

02 / Frame by frame

Planks, sit-ups, leg raises, dumbbells, kettlebells. Each figure repeats its exercise in a short loop, and every movement is drawn by hand, frame by frame.

The whole picture was composed on the outline of the façade it was made for, so the gym follows the building’s steps and overhangs.

Individual loops, before they were assembled.

From line to colour: the drawing process.

The first layout, sketched inside the outline of the façade.

03 / The open call

The open call and the selection notice, as shared in the project’s reel.

The animation was made for The Screen, the open call for the mapping show of digital art at OFFF Barcelona 2026, projected onto the façade of the Disseny Hub.

The open call received 735 artworks from 63 countries. Mine was among the works selected for the programme.

04 / The screening

The gym at the scale of a building: every figure several storeys high.

The Screen ran on 16–18 April, 9–11 pm, with free entry. In the programme, listed in order of appearance, the animation was number 25.

The programme, in order of appearance: no. 25.
