Zeppelins Swarm, 53rd International Art Exhibition Venice Biennale, Venice. 2009
Zeppelin Swarm includes a massive campaign to publicise a zeppelin fair that never really occurred and it spans from the participation of Venetian street artists to the implantation of viral media on the Internet. The event/fiction has been supported in different ways: the design of a virtual zeppelin for use in all media imagery, the production of a series of photomontages, combining the image of the virtual zeppelin with classic photographs of the Venice cityscape and a real zeppelin remains stuck in a thin corridor between two buildings within the Arsenale exposition space of the Venice Biennal

HÉCTOR ZAMORA is a Mexican artist based in São Paulo, Brazil. Over the past decade, he has created his most significant pieces by working on public spaces, often rearticulating the physical characteristics of a specific urban or architectural environment.

Creating structures that enhance or highlight particular characteristics or patterns of social use of that space and environment, the artist often utilises materials that also carry a particular resonance within that location. ZAMORA often draws the local community into the process of not only experiencing the work of art, but also as a part of the creation. The artist reimagines these public spaces through the implementation of sculptural additions made from materials with a specific significance within each site to interact with the community consciousness.

Irony and a sense of humour are also key elements in his art. ZAMORA’s playfulness compensates for the seriousness of his interventions, just as his organic approach to architecture and urban planning ensures that his work is never overbearing but suggestive, appealing and insightful.
