2022 Instagram Residency: Santiago Tamayo Soler


  • Dazibao 5455 Avenue de Gaspé Montréal, QC, H2T 3B3 Canada (map)

Dazibao welcomes Santiago Tamayo Soler for its 2022 Instagram residency, for which the artist will take over our account from June 15 to August 15 with his project entitled Neón.

Neón is a cartographic exploration of a Colombian highway reimagined through Google Maps. By taking samples of 30 landscapes and buildings documented on Google Street Views, Néon travels all the way from the southernmost to the northernmost points of Colombia. The selected images of buildings and landscapes, mostly composed of nightlife venues and transitory spaces, are transformed into nocturnal, haunting, and foggy vignettes, filled with neon lights.
