Mimaki has collaborated with creative professional Anabella Bergero to produce a prize winning window installation for the ‘Constructing Identities’ MUSA exhibition in Miami, Florida.
The window mural, installed in the spring, was designed to recreate a Latinx visual universe, exploring gender identity, religious iconography and Latin American pop art. Latinx is a gender-neutral term for people of Latin American cultural or ethnic identity in the US. The project was the culmination of a three-year process, with research having been carried out in Argentina, Mexico and the Latin American community in New York.
In concert with Bergero and to take advantage of lighting from both inside and outside the venue, Mimaki USA, a long-term user of Drytac materials, selected Drytac ViziPrint Impress Clear for the graphics which were printed on a Mimaki UCJV300-160 UV LED roll-to-roll printer.
The installation went on to win the SUNY PACC Prize and showcased at the Argentine Consulate in New York, as well as the Art and Design Gallery at the Fashion Institute of Technology.
