What is it about?
Field of Leaves is an interactive installation that depicts public contracts held in Portugal and their distribution over its five regions and two autonomous regions. Our work tries to present the data in a simple and attractive manner, asserting it as a piece primarily driven by aesthetic considerations.

Why is it important?
The installation attempts to advocate the importance and advantages of aesthetics in first-time audience engagement, and how user interaction and hedonic qualities can heighten the user's curiosity and promote more lasting explorations with a visualization.
Perspectives
I hope that this article will help other authors to ponder new relationships between the areas of visualization information and the arts in order to generate visualization works that can expand the space of possibilities for future installations.
