“Echoes of Colors” is a five-minute video mapping show projected onto the tower of the City Hall, in an intense celebration of colour.

In this dreamlike universe, colours are central to the experience, transforming the tower into a playground, challenging and reinventing its structure.

Bathed in vibrant hues, the building seems at times to float, shatter into glass or reveal a skeleton illuminated by phosphorescent vegetation.

The projection ends with an explosion of infinite colours that emphasise the verticality of the tower, all accompanied by a synchronised soundtrack to complete the experience.
