The question at the heart of this initiative is bold: can a tyre create art? With this in mind, BSAPIC collaborated with a diverse group of artists, creative technologists, precision drivers and motorsport enthusiasts to reimagine the traditional tyre. The team harnessed spatial and speed data captured by AI-enhanced sensors installed on a high-performance sports car during intense driving scenarios to create four captivating art pieces in static and motion forms. These art pieces vividly depict the tire's performance for speed, grip, control, and precision.
"What is fast is indeed beautiful," said Lennard Kwek, Director, Brand Marketing & Communications, BSAPIC. "Just as motorsports have captivated fans with the visual excitement of races, we wanted to convey our tyres' mastery of these thrilling performances through artistic expressions. "
The ad film will be broadcast across key digital media channels in Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Singapore, with additional markets to follow soon after.
