Meet Luma, a beautifully illuminated 9m long robotic snail. Built with fabric, light and air, she looms above visitors with a welcoming and otherworldly presence.
Using world-pioneering bio-mechanical technology, Luma’s 3-meter-high head bends to greet new friends. The range of flexing motions give Luma a beautiful movement, and perfectly reflect contorting motions found within the animal kingdom.
Audiences have instinctive emotional and affectionate reactions to this work. Huge in the distance and so friendly up close, they cannot wait to befriend this truly spectacular gentle giant.
Luma is a joyful work which champions both nature and technology, and reimagines what robots can be for.
