Surge; blown and sandblasted glass, projection and sound; H309 x W87 x D378 cm, 2024 | Photographs by Elisa de Sá Pinto 
Surge is a site-specific installation that invites the audience to step away from reality as we perceive it. It consists of blown glass sculptures, video projections and sound. Filmed around Bibi's studio surroundings, each video looping shows water reflections and fire, creating a subtle, strange and dreamy image. The audience is invited to experience the alienating feeling of not knowing exactly what they seeing. As they try to make sense of the shapes, the video morphs into the organic elements. The mind turns off thoughts and worries and becomes part of the immersive experience. For a moment, the imaginative space is full of possibilities, colour and movement.
