At Glow Inflatables Ltd we’ve always been drawn to projects with imagination, ambition and a big visual footprint so we are delighted to team up again with artist Nelly Ben Hayoun-Stepanian.
Nelly is a London-based designer of experiences, filmmaker and creative agitator whose work fuses art, science and spectacle. For her installation in London’s West End as part of Art After Dark in March 2025, we supplied two enormous neon inflatables of Schrödinger’s Cats with fibre optic whiskers to exhibit in Leicester Square. These giant cats, complete with internal LED lighting, were specially engineered for outdoor display ensuring both durability and impact.
Now these enigmatic installations have travelled all the way to Tokyo for Moon Art Night, a lunar art festival spanning several venues across the neighbourhood of Shimokitazawa. The five-metre-high felines have continued to wow visitors with their beauty and impressive scale. Whilst in Tokyo, they created the perfect backdrop for a nocturnal pet photoshoot whereby public images could be shared on social media.
This long-term project demonstrates the versatility of artistic inflatables. The team at Glow collaborates with artists to produce striking installations true to the original brief, creating visual landmarks which can easily be transferred across the world.
The global spread of these pieces is exactly the kind of creative scale we thrive on; inflatable art that moves, shifts, and delights across cities and cultures. It’s the kind of project that makes inflatable art feel alive, global and unforgettable.
