Engineering on the circus ring

To stand up this male elephant, recognizable by its tusks, a tonand measuring almost 3.60 meters it took entire teams of experts in Inde and in Spainspecialized in performing arts.

A hyperrealistic work which required years of work . “We took all the time necessary, it took us several years to create a exact replica», communicates to us the group of engineers.

Noticed around the world

Several of these machines have been built and some have already traveled the world, notably participating in a television set in Spain.

We first observed the elephants in the wild, then convinced Indian sculptors to create them and finally added the technological and electromechanical part which perfectly replicates the movements of the elephants!

“Just seeing it is impressive but when the main designer of these sculptures activates the flapping of the ears, the movement of the eyes, the activity of the head and the trunk… This leaves us speechless », reacted the journalist from Spanish national television Antenna3during the first presentation to the public.
