After 18 months pride of place as the inaugural piece on the Sculpture Terrace at Sydney’s newly renovated MCA, Hany Armarnious’ Fountain now has a new home in Melbourne.
For the first half of 2012, the Big Kahuna workshop was busy being covered in marble dust as we tirelessly set out to realise Hany’s giant inner ear sculpture for his commission by the Museum of Contemporary Art.
Fast forward 18 months and we cannot believe how time has flown! It was with great care that last week we packaged it up and moved the 3 Tonne beast to its new resting place at Heide Museum of Modern Art near Melbourne.
Seven West Media held a launch for advertisers and media in Sydney last night unveiling plans for free-to-air’s first television channel delivered via the internet. The event was held at at Star City and Big Kahuna Imagineering was proud to have created the amazing staging centrepiece which provided the backdrop for the night and was also pictured in The Australian Newspaper today!
At the conclusion of the night, the stage prop was then packed up and shipped down to Melbourne for a repeat performance this evening.
Last month Sydney hosted CeBit, the largest annual business exhibition in Australia attracting the biggest gathering of business technology professionals in the country.
BKI along with Harry the Hirer (rigging) and Staging Rentals (exhibition construction) as the main construction contractor realised George P Johnson’s exhibition for featured exhibitor, Salesforce — the enterprise cloud computing leader.
Using 22 giant, white weather balloons, Big Kahuna Imagineering reinterpreted the cloud that is central to the Salesforce logo and also a nod to the tech trend of “the cloud”.
Suspended from a 6-metre rig truss, the balloons were lit by LED lighting giving it a brilliant effect. Flex cable ran up aluminum tubing from the balloon to the truss to secure the installation throughout the 3-day event.
The show floor was packed with specialists covering everything tech-related including the Cloud, data centres, Big Data, communications, financial technology, Security, mobility, Social Media and eGovernment. But this looming installation hung over the Salesforce stand at CeBit like a beacon to expo attendees.
