I am Spider-Man.

Jumping from one window to another, walking on walls, for me as Spider-Man, it's all in a day's work. Okay, I know what you're thinking: how did I become Spider-Man? Well, no spider bites were involved, nor biting spiders. In fact, in front of artist Leandro Erlich's mirror installation "Bâtiment," anyone can be Spider-Man.

This is an interactive art installation: a large architectural facade model is placed on the floor, and in front of the model stands a huge mirror that reflects the activities happening on the model. So when visitors perform various actions on the architectural model on the floor, they see themselves in the mirror defying gravity, creating the illusion of being Spider-Man, walking on walls without restraint. Clever, simple, and fun.
