To celebrate the UAE National Day in Abu Dhabi, Obscura projection-mapped the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque with forty-four projectors with a combined brightness of 840,000 lumens. The projections covered the 600 x 351 ft high surface area of the architectural landmark. The three dimensional mapping created a series of bright, stylized architectural projections that illuminate the façade, four minarets and twelve domes of the mosque. The show featured illuminated designs mirroring both historical imagery and the artistic styles found in the structure and decoration of the mosque. projected depictions include palms, pentagonal geometry, gardens of paradise, the qibla wall, the mehrab, architectural motifs, night skies and cycles of the moon, and planetary projections of the earth.
