"When they get inside a venue like this and see a huge eagle, seven meters made only with balloons, they're stunned," said balloon artist Kobi Kalimian. This reaction encapsulates the awe visitors experience at the exhibit, which aims to elevate the perception of balloon art through impressive installations.
Kalimian knows a thing or two about the spheres filled with air. A whopping 700,000 of them are now inside the Park Avenue Armory. This massive quantity showcases the scale of the artwork and Kalimian's dedication as a certified balloon artist over his decade-long career.
Each section has a different theme: space travel, under the sea, take a trip around the world or play a piano key. These themes add a layer of creativity to the exhibit, inviting viewers into various imaginative worlds.
A trick of the trade to keeping balloons plump: blast the air conditioning. Kalimian explains practical tips for maintaining the artwork, showing the expertise involved in balloon sculpting.
