We live in an Ocean of Air is a multi-sensory immersive installation by Marshmallow Laser Feast, debuting at The Saatchi Gallery in London from 07th December to 20th January 2019.

In a 20 minute experience cutting-edge technology illuminates the invisible- but fundamental- connections between human and the natural world. You’ll be transported to one of the oldest forests on Earth and witness the majestic power of the largest organism to ever exist - the giant Sequoia tree.

Step through the canvas to explore a magical 3D world where the invisible exchange of oxygen and CO2 is beautifully brought to life. Untethered virtual reality, breath and heart sensors will track your real-time breathing and encourage you to reflect on our dependence and responsibility to the organisms we share our planet with.
