Bridge to a united planet

Portal sculptures exist in countries around the world. Together we create, together we expand this first of its kind artwork.

In the collective consciousness

Portals are technology art sculptures. They connect to a network of identical sculptures all over the planet. Each Portal is located in the public space, providing a real-time, unfiltered livestream 24/7 that is frequently rotating between different Portal locations on Earth.

We all share more than what separates us

In a world of increasingly polarizing narratives, it is essential to remember that we are all together on this tiny, beautiful spaceship called Earth.

Expanding our definition of home

Portals are an invitation to meet fellow humans above borders and prejudices and to experience our home – planet Earth – as it really is: united and one.

history

Started in 2021 by the non-profit Benediktas Gylys Foundation, Portals share an invitation for unity that has been touching hundreds of millions of people. Learn more about the history of the project.

The Portals Network

Expanding into large cities and little towns around the world, Portals are an alive and constantly growing network. While each Portal is an individual sculpture, together they exist as one entity.

How can I get involved?
The Portal Network will achieve its full potential when people from around the world contribute and co-create this artwork. At the moment, we can build a maximum of 6 new Portals per year in order to fully dedicate ourselves to each new location and ensure the sustainable expansion of the network. We are open for partnership inquiries but please mind that our small team has limited capacity and we can therefore not respond to all proposals. We are grateful for your positive energy and support, and we invite you to join the journey on our social media channels.
Where can I find Portals?
Portals are built all over the planet, in large cities and remote villages. All Portals are accessible in the public space at notable locations, such as central city squares and cultural and natural landmarks.
Do Portals have audio?
Portals invite us to meet above language barriers and connect using the only global language known to all humankind: body language. We believe that by adding more features we are taking away from the essential experience that Portals offer. Therefore, they provide a purely visual livestream.
How do Portals connect to each other? 
Portals connect to each other through a 24/7 livestream that is frequently rotating between locations, thus providing a window between far away places and cultures. We seek to provide equal screen time for all locations - whether they are large cities or small towns.
For how long do Portals exist at a location?
Each Portal is a technology sculpture that is built to last for centuries. We seek long-term partners to co-create the Portals Network, which is an alive and evolving global artwork.
What is the purpose of Portals?
Portals are a global network inviting us to meet fellow humans above borders and third party narratives. They provide a 24/7 window to different cultures from around the world and serve as a space where we can meet people outside of our social bubbles - people who we would otherwise never meet during our lifetimes.
