Magic Canopy

The Magic Canopy is a three dimensional zoetrope. It uses a rotating platform, strobe lights, and a variety of characters to create a magical animated scene that comes to life at the push of a button. The Magic Canopy is weather-proof and can be installed and used anytime, anywhere.

Interactive Art for Creative Placemaking

Magic Canopies are available for purchase worldwide as custom commissions or off-the-shelf versions. They are also available for lease on a weekly or monthly basis.

It is the perfect small-footprint installation for activating a space, enlivening an event, generating foot traffic, or just having fun.
