"Metafold" is a digital art collection by visual artist Can Buyukberber, exclusively compiled for the New BMW 7 Series. With kinetic digital sculptures inspired by physics, futurism, high-dimensional geometry, and organic structures, the collection interprets the design philosophy of the New BMW 7 Series – "a space for breathing, thinking, and evolving" – as an inspiring audiovisual installation and a sensory experience.
The Metafold experience, informed by Buyukberber's interdisciplinary studies connecting science, art, and design, aims to serve as a unique interactive and enduring memory for visitors. This experience is complemented by limited edition prints produced by the artist and an augmented reality extension.
