The headquarters of the European Union Council, the Justus Lipsius building in Brussels, will host from 5 January until the end of the Spanish presidency of the EU the latest creative project of Daniel Canogar, the video installation "Travesías".

The installation of "Travesías" is a dome with LED power cables that rises above the public, forming a kind of electronic tapestry. Visitors are also part of the installation as they transit the atrium of the Justus Lipsius building.
