Liquid PXL, led by Abram Santa Cruz, is based out of Los Angeles. We are a collective of artists, engineers, and kindred spirits on a mission to craft exhilarating and expansive interactive art installations. Our creative endeavors delve into the fascinating intersection of geometry and art, seamlessly intertwining to evoke a sense of tranquility and meditation through mesmerizing animations.
At Liquid PXL, our passion extends beyond aesthetics; we are committed to fostering communal joy in public spaces through immersive art experiences. Embracing a diverse array of LED technologies, our toolkit includes the ingenious fusion of Raspberry Pi devices and bespoke LED controllers. To breathe life into our visions, we harness the power of cutting-edge LED animation programs such as LED LABs, Mad Mapper, Resolume, and Madrix.
Join us on a journey where technology meets artistry, and where the vibrant pulse of our installations invites people to unite in the shared appreciation of public spaces. Liquid PXL is not just a creative force; it’s a movement that transforms spaces into canvases, inviting all to explore the enchanting realm of interactive art.
We began with our first big art project at Burning Man in 2012 followed by our first music festival exhibit at Lucidity in 2013. Since then, we’ve completed 5 art installations with The Sea Urchin awarded the 2016 Global Arts Grant from Burning Man and the 2019 Aquarium of the Pacific Grant. Most recently, Kukulkan’s Portal was awarded the 2020 Burning Man Honoraria Grant. Several of our led light installations have exhibited in international light festivals.
