Creating something new that has never been seen before is eye-opening to others, according to Studio Drift’s cofounder.

How do you pull off flying 1,000 illuminated drones in the formation of a swarm of starlings above Central Park on a Saturday night and why would anyone want to?

The one-night-only event featured 10-minute flights at 7 p.m., 8 p.m. and 9 p.m., making it the park’s largest public arts event since artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s installed orange fabric flags along 23 miles of walking paths for “The Gates.” Participants could also tune into the music that Joep Boving composed and played for the occasion.

Founded in 2007, Studio Drift, which has offices in Amsterdam and New York, soon plans to reveal a large-scale show that will be staged overseas and a fashion-related project is being considered. But neither one Nauta was at liberty to discuss yet. The studio is represented by Pace.
