Immersive Exhibition "Life and Work of Frida Kahlo"

Life & Work of Frida Kahlo
Life & Work of Frida Kahlo is an immersive experience created and produced by ACCIONA Cultural Engineering. An exhibition that merges traditional museography, cinematic rhythms, theater scenography, and contemporary art language around the artist’s multiple facets and life experiences.
Tigrelab has been in charge of the creative direction and content production, working alongside Acciona to convert the curatorial script into a 40-minute audiovisual experience.
To be as faithful as possible to Kahlo’s work while creating a reinterpretation of her work, Tigrelab has collaborated with a multidisciplinary team of 15 creatives, among whom you can find: technology developers, plastic artists, illustrators, designers/textile designers, an oil painter, a creative coder, 2D animators & 3D artists.
The creative studio Tigrelab offered me to collaborate on 3 parts of this journey, exploring the life of Frida Kahlo under the creative direction of Tigrelab. We were able to immerse ourselves in three milestones of the life and work of this well-known artist: The Blue House, The Family and Dead Altars.

Dead Altars
Frida Kahlo was passionate about pre-Columbian Mexican art. For this scene, she designed a pre-Columbian mortuary temple by adapting some of her paintings to ancient Mexican monuments.
