Dalí: Painting & Film

Throughout his life and career, renowned surrealist Salvador Dalí maintained a deep connection with film as an artistic medium. He collaborated with movie greats such as Luis Buñuel, Alfred Hitchcock, and Walt Disney, and created works influenced by Cecil B. De Mille and the Marx Brothers. Dalí: Painting & Film, coming to Los Angeles, the epicenter of film, aims to illustrate the cinematic influences and elements that are present in Dalí's work as well as the contribution he made to cinema. The exhibition brings together a variety of key pieces from Dalí's oeuvre, incorporating painting, film, photography, sculpture, and texts.

Though I assisted in the design of the entire show, the images shown here focus on the ribbon wall room, which required specific technical considerations to bridge the gap between the design envisioned by the team and the building constraints. I created imaging to allow LACMA’s on site carpentry shop to bring the idea into reality.
