Creating a captivating art installation for a world-renowned luxury brand like Dior requires more than just technical expertise—it demands a deep understanding of art and aesthetics. Giza, an experienced exhibition contractor, was entrusted by PT. Kingsmen Indonesia to bring Dior’s artistic vision to life at the prestigious Four Seasons Hotel in Bali.
The project, known as Diorivera Art Installation, aimed to create a stunning display incorporating animal figures like giraffes, tigers, birds, and monkeys, along with trees, seamlessly integrated with Dior’s product showcases.
In this blog, we’ll explore how Giza expertly managed the complexities of this installation, overcame challenges, and delivered an extraordinary result that impressed the client.
Project Scope: Combining Artistry and Craftsmanship
The Diorivera Art Installation project was a highly detailed and intricate endeavor. Giza was responsible for fabricating and installing various artistic elements using materials such as foam, fiber, Aplus, and a textured sand finish.
The team created large-scale animal figures, seamlessly integrated them into the display structure, wrapped pillars with foam, and installed plant patterns onto the display walls.
Every element needed to complement Dior’s products and enhance the luxury brand’s image, making the space feel like an artistic wonderland.
The project’s main scope of work included:
Creating Animal Figures & Textured Walls: The foam and fiber animal figures were meticulously crafted to capture realistic details, while textured walls and pillars were designed to blend in perfectly with the surrounding environment.
On-Site Installation: The installation process required precise coordination with other construction vendors at the hotel to ensure that the art installation fit seamlessly into the final display.
Main Activities & Processes: Bringing Art to Life
The project involved several key activities and processes to ensure a high-quality finish:
Foam Shaping & Sampling: Before starting full production, the team created foam samples for the animal shapes, sand textures, and color tests. This ensured that every element matched Dior’s high standards.
Texture & Color Finishing: The textured sand finish and color matching were critical to achieving a visually cohesive look. The team carefully applied these details to bring the installation to life with a luxurious feel.
Detailed On-Site Assembly: With limited time for on-site installation, Giza’s team had to work efficiently to mount the animal figures, complete the foam pillar coverings, and apply the plant patterns to the display walls.
Challenges & Solutions: Overcoming Space and Time Constraints
Creating large-scale art installations always comes with its own set of challenges, especially when dealing with limited space and tight deadlines.
For the Diorivera project, Giza faced two major challenges:
Limited Production Space: The large size of the textured walls and animal figures required ample space during production, making it difficult to work within the constraints of a smaller workshop. Giza overcame this by maximizing available space and optimizing production flow to accommodate the large pieces without compromising quality.
Tight On-Site Installation Timeline: The installation at the Four Seasons Hotel in Bali could only begin after the main construction work was completed by another vendor. This reduced the total time available for Giza to complete the assembly. To address this, Giza’s team meticulously planned every step, ensuring that all parts were pre-fitted and ready for quick installation once they had access to the site.
People Behind the Art: The Team’s Role & Expertise
Successful projects require a strong team and effective collaboration. The Diorivera Art Installation involved a dedicated group of professionals who brought their expertise to the table:
Project Supervisor: Responsible for overseeing the entire project, ensuring smooth execution from start to finish, and coordinating between teams.
Graphic Design Lead: Focused on the visual elements, ensuring that the graphic designs were integrated seamlessly into the overall art installation.
Paint Specialist: Ensured the accuracy of color matching and applied high-quality paint finishes to all elements.
Electrical Lead: Handled the installation of lighting and wiring, ensuring the display was not only visually stunning but also functional.
Art Director: Guided the artistic direction of the project, ensuring that the final outcome aligned perfectly with Dior’s brand vision and maintained high aesthetic standards.
