What is the Universe made of? What is the Universe made of? This question served as the starting point for this project, inspired by research in particle physics and the search for the fundamental constituents of matter.

The challenge was to translate complex concepts from experimental particle physics and scientific instrumentation into an accessible, clear, and engaging language capable of sparking young people’s curiosity.

We designed an exhibition that guides visitors through an intuitive journey where invisible phenomena take shape through interactive experiences, explanatory content, and exhibition devices created to facilitate understanding. Empathy and audience engagement were encouraged through identification badges assigned to each particle, with unique characteristics such as a name, personality, or mood, allowing visitors to recognize the diversity and complexity of the phenomena presented.

Throughout the visit, themes such as the Higgs boson, dark matter, and fundamental interactions are introduced progressively, encouraging discovery, questioning, and fascination with science.

An exhibition experience that brings the public closer to scientific research and makes visible what at first seems impossible to observe.
