SuperGraphics for a SUPERWOMAN

An entry photomural captures Shakira’s dynamic nature, and provides a memorable backdrop for photos.

Highly visual introductory graphics establish Shakira’s origins and wide-ranging talents: singer-songwriter, dancer, musician, performer and visual artist.

Sources of Inspiration

The core of the show is the Atlas, an expansive graphics display that maps sources of Shakira’s inspiration throughout the world. Audio-visual activities offer ways to explore exemplary Shakira songs.

Suspended overhead is a graphic kaleidoscope of Blue Morpho butterflies, a species native to Shakira’s hometown in Colombia.

Barefoot Goddess

Exhibit settings, patterns, textiles and furnishings are expressive of Shakira’s roots and bohemian spirit, and the colors and textures of her golden El Dorado period.

TIKTOK CHALLENGE

A family uses a simple phone-based interactive to create and share videos of their attempts to Shake it Like Shakira.
