Filament Storm for Vivid

Filament Storm for Vivid

 Filament Storm for Vivid 2014

About this Project

Tri-Point has been involved with Vivid Sydney projects for many years on behalf of individual artists and production managers alike. From ground supported truss structures to support LED video walls and lighting installations, to scaffold projection towers and rigging solutions in and around the harbour, Tri-Point have worked on a vast range of bespoke projects at Vivid.

Vivid 2014 was no exception. Tri-Point were recognised as an official event collaborator to Vivid Sydney by providing scaffolding, truss and rigging solutions for Filament Storm.

Produced by Sketch Evolution, the project lit 5 buildings across Sydney’s skyline with illumination technology and we were thrilled to provide the infrastructure for this innovative installation.

About this Project

Tri-Point were contracted by Kerrect Group on behalf of the Sydney Opera House to assist the team from Scottish 10 who came to Sydney to complete a 3D digital scan of the Sydney Opera House.

The purpose of the project was to digitally document an International World Heritage site, as chosen by the Scottish Government, effectively imprinting this iconic building into the history books in 3D.

Tri-Point provided a number of truss rigs to support the 3D laser scanner as it overhung the sails on the roof of The House, utilising our aluminium concert box truss and tri truss.

About this Project

Tri-Point installed this sculpture, on behalf of artist Lucy Humphrey, for Sculptures by the Sea 2013.

Named ‘Horizon’, the sculpture was a water filled sphere, wighing 2000kg once full, which had to be carried (carefully) by hand into place by our rigging team on the rocks at Bondi Beach, where it was filled with water once onsite.

Director, Warren Jones, led the install and dismantle crew.

About this Project

The first major exhibition of celebrated artist, Anish Kapoor, was put on by the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney. Tri-Point were engaged to install the “Sky Mirror”, a 10.6m wide concave dish of polished stainless steel, weighing in at 23 tonnes. The artwork was built at an angle pointing up towards the sky so that it’s surface reflected the ever-changing environment.

Pieced together by Kapoor’s team, with the assistance of our riggers, and with a little help from a boom lift and a crane, the structure sat in situ on the banks of Sydney Harbour for approximately 5 months, from December 2012 through to April 2013.

About this Project

Tri-Point worked with Brisbane Festival on their “Santos City of Light” program for 2 consecutive years; 2011 and 2012. Each time, enormous scaffold supports were required for laser, lighting and technical support during the festival. Using our event-style scaffolding, we built the structures offsite with cranes onto a barge, and then the entire set up was manoevred into place. Many thanks to Tri-Point Director, Graeme Dew, and his team of hard working scaffolders who managed the project from design through to implementation.
