Oversized shoe installation for Hoka at the UTMB. Tecton X 3. From sole to summit, a visual experience like no other.
In the breathtaking setting of the Mont-Blanc cable car in Chamonix, a unique artistic installation has taken shape, offering visitors an unprecedented visual and sensory experience. The oversized
shoe served as the centerpiece, combining the functional essence of the product with the awe-inspiring visuals of digital art. This Hoka project aimed to highlight the shoe's key features while immersing viewers in the rugged, dynamic world of Jim Walmsley. By using projection mapping, we sought to transform this static object into an immersive experience that would captivate the audience. Showcasing the versatility of both the technology and the Tecton X 3 process.
