Biomuseo: Panama is the Museum

DOCUMENTARY SERIES · 60 MICRODOCUMENTARIES · 2019 · COMMISSIONED BY BIOMUSEO

Synopsis

Commissioned work for the Biomuseo's permanent interactive exhibition «Panamá es el Museo».

The main purpose of the exhibition is to give the visitor a sense of the diversity of experiences they can have on a visit to the country. Those experiences are represented as a series of MISSIONS. The idea is that the visitor discovers these missions and is moved to take them on and see them through.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

The gallery is the last stop of the Biomuseo, the Museum of Biodiversity in Panama City and the only building Frank Gehry designed in Latin America. It runs on touchscreens, kiosks, projectors and ceiling sensors, and its programme changes continuously.

THE MISSIONS

The whole published series, fifty-eight films. Each one plays right here: a place, a dish, a trade, a celebration.
