Creativity Auditorium - Mistura

The amphitheater at the Parque de la Exposición was chosen as the site for this auditorium, which was intended to serve as one of the central elements of the fair and harmonize with the “serpent” structure designed by 51-1.

Following a research process, the resulting concept aimed to represent the cultural "mistura" (blend) of contemporary Peru. The auditorium was composed of three overlapping layers. On the outside, the goal was for the public to clearly identify the structure. Although the initial idea was to use a woven textile to integrate both the exterior and interior, considerations such as wind, permeability, and cleanliness led to the decision to cover the exterior with waterproof banners. These banners featured high-quality printed photographs inspired by aerial views of Andean agricultural plots.

On the inner face of the auditorium, a similar image was used, but in its negative version. For the stage design, a ten-meter-high woven tapestry was created, composed of a colorful horizontal weft and a raw-colored vertical warp. This textile was made from 16 colors representative of Peru and crafted with elastic bands. It was designed in collaboration with designer Chiara Macchiavello.
