Underdogs was invited by MEO Kalorama to fill the venue of this new music festival in Lisbon with art, through three different initiatives that involved several artists from the Underdogs universe.
The first part of this collaboration was a large-scale intervention by Portuguese visual artist AkaCorleone called "Temple of Sound", which occupied the entire main stage of the venue and brought continuation to his ongoing "Temple of Light" project.
The second part was a special space dedicated to the presentation of over 30 exclusive Underdogs art editions by a diversity of artists, including Felipe Pantone, Okuda San Miguel, Tamara Alves, Vhils, Wasted Rita, and many others.
The third was a workshop by emerging Portuguese artist Madalena Pequito that positioned art as a pillar for sustainability and invited the audience to illustrate the 17 sustainable development goals established by the United Nations.
