Every rock concert to some degree explores the tension between the magnified image and the life size pop star and this phenomenon was the core of the concept: a conversation between the human-scaled Beyoncé and her 20-m-high magnification. The intimacy of the close up and the magnificence of the wide shot were combined in a single gesture which became the sole focal point for the gaze of 90,000 in each stadium.
