In 2026, Digital Inflatables made a 6 m tall chrome inflatable sculpture shaped like a hand for the concerts of the Franco-Swiss DJ Mosimann. On stage, the silver hand with curled fingers rises among fountains of sparks and flames, and its mirror surface throws the lights back at the crowd. Born in Geneva, Mosimann won the Star Academy in 2008.

The shiny silver hand has its fingers curled upward; its mirror surface throws back the lights of the show.

In the concert video, it stands at the side of the stage, surrounded by fountains of sparks and flames, while the crowd films it on their phones. The workshop’s post speaks of sculptures in the plural, and another silver shape can be seen on a raised platform further along the stage.

Who is Mosimann?

Mosimann is a Franco-Swiss DJ, singer-songwriter and producer, born in Geneva.

In 2008 he won the seventh season of the Star Academy.

His shows combine electronic music, lighting and pyrotechnics, as the workshop’s video shows, so a stage inflatable has to stay readable in the middle of the effects.

How is a chrome inflatable sculpture used on a concert stage?

Typically, the sculpture is kept inflated by a constant blower and fixed to the stage; its mirror finish reflects the lights and effects of the show.

Near pyrotechnics, follow the safety distances set by the venue and choose a material whose fire rating suits the hall.

More stage sets are in the guide to inflatable stage sets for festivals; for budgets, see the guide to custom inflatable prices.
