The Passenger is an immersive installation that plunges the visitor into a state of altered reality. Through the dialogue between a large-format electronic device and an audiovisual system composed of three rear projections, the work unfolds an imagery that showcases the transition between different states of matter, altered by the transmutation of energy in the form of light. Using technological elements arranged as a large matrix, the structure presents itself as a ritual device evoking a primitive era. Electronic circuits excite the gas contained in hundreds of lamps, invoking electric fire. Oceans and rocks slow down consciousness in the dream of the long night. The Passenger opens a rift that invites the spectator to be carried away by the mystery of matter and time.

With its 6 meters in width and 2 meters in height, the installation is a large-format work suspended in the exhibition space, generating light effects through its 400 gas lamps, which react to various behaviors related to the generation of sound and visual forms, as well as sequences programmed with variable algorithms. Its luminous power, trapped inside its nine semi-transparent modules, radiates a cold organic light both from its front and back, producing a muffled hum as the gas particles inside are excited by high-voltage impulses. As the light grows, the components that bring the system to life can be seen through its acrylic walls: electronic design, integrated circuits, hundreds of meters of cables, 3D printing, methacrylate, and a black aluminum structure that gives body to this synthetic golem. Three rear projection screens expand this electronic body by showing video forms. A black water ocean slowly stirs, unifying matter in the darkness of its depths. Black stones float weightlessly, crystallizing as they collapse into their solid form. Water and stones alternate, building a metaphysical discourse through the plasticity of the images and the light effects developed by the electronic body of the installation.
