About project
The MUTIS project was created as a tribute to the Spanish explorer, botanist, and mathematician José Celestino Mutis. In his spirit, the installation presents a menagerie of eight unknown animal species that differ from those familiar to us as they have been created through movement, volume, and sound. These eight animal species are the result of a collaboration between the Tigrelab creative studio and eight guest sound designers and studios.
Through the scientist’s imaginary notebook, MUTIS enables visitors to enjoy an audiovisual experience associated with the architecture of an unknown planet where viewers will discover a world completely different from their own.
