KIDS SHOW**** Mirazozo
Assembly George Square @ Dawn till Dusk
Set in a corner of the George square garden, Architects of air present the installation that has wowed audiences from Tel Aviv to the Sydney opera house.
Mirazozo is not a piece of performance art ,it is in fact a giant art installation using the power of natural light and colour to mould a fascinating journey through childhood dreams and hopes. You slip off your shoes and enter the airlock and completely forget your worries and strains that a day on the fringe can bring as you’re enveloped by a soundscape and visuals unlike any you’ve ever seen before. The structure is completely man made and it does breathe as each entry and exit from the airlock causes the Mirazozo to inhale and exhale air moving the structure all around you. Designer Alan Parkinson really has created a mini world of wonder with light and colour in beautiful volumes.
Mirazozo has so many possibilities both for the everyday audience member and especially those with sensory impairments and autism. It has a strange way of really pulling you under its charms and really is an extraordinary experience with in the festival. The installation runs in 30 minute session but the staff are in no hurry to remove you so it’s worth taking time to sit back relax and wonder about the possibilities of your own dreams as the light all around soothes your soul.
