Light Elevator

A simple Projection Object shows the dynamic picture of turning circles in a projection with 5m diameter. Built and first shown in the Light Festival -Interference 2018- in Tunis kurated and organized by Bettina Pelz and Aymen Gahbi

Chronotop

 The Exhibition SWITCH shows works of Students and Dozents from the HBKsaar in the "International Cener of Light Art" in the "Lindenbrauerei" in Unna, Germany. My object is the room covering -Chronotop- placed in one of the big vaulted cellar rooms. The work shows attributes of a clock but runs in a individual, slow time which every visitor may define on his own.

Here shown in the Festival -Lichtrouten- in Lüdenscheid 2018


Der Seifenblasen Projektor

The Bubble Projector

Artistic projection apparatus bases on a powerful overhead projector. Possible size of the picture is up to 140m². The very dynamic upward moving cells also show interference colors

Experience: Young and old audience loves this object. It is very analog and a teaser for projection experts because the picture is really sharp. Also here the apparatus gained the status of a sculpture

 

Light_Act_Project

The former mentioned apparatus creates the footage material for my part of the mapping project in Saarbrücken. It is organized by the HBKsaar in connection with the City of Saarbrücken. Realized by Prof. Daniel Hausig his team and the students

Experience: Complex connections of different jurisdictions at the river, organization of technical equipment and 9000 visitors. Also bulky artistic positions are positively absorbed by the audience, the nature of the medium light



Himmeldbild

Sky Picture

A huge mirror is placed underneath a roof window or any suitable situation. The sky view is turned around here. We are not used in this way of viewing which deeply changes our perception 

Experience: The passing clouds are astonishing and also the change in the color of a monochrome sky during the day gets perceptible intensively



Lichtsessel

Light Armchair

The luxury only to describe a furniture. The object works with the reflexion of uv reactive pigments

Experience: In case of the “Light Armchair” our behavior fills the space


Stadtfeuer

Urban Fireplace

The abstract fireplace for urban spaces increases the value of meeting points with its poetical play of light. As a standing partyobject or flush mounted this sculpture is prepared to be accessible

Experience: A Fireplace makes it possible that strangers talk to each other. Beside this it also is a place to rest and meditate. This character of a fireplace is astonishingly to find here



Raumlichtprojektor

Space and Light Projector

Poetic, like random and silent opposition pole to the flood of digital projections. In this projection sculpture light shines through three moving grid drums. It is possible to light big surfaces and the picture is colorful or soft depending to the distance

Experience: The Audience likes the simplicity and the freedom of associations. The apparatus by and by gained the status of a sculpture



Die Sonne

The Sun

The light sculpture shows a dense light circle that changes in the orange color range. In a kind of comic style the object plays with the behavior of mankind that it will be able to solve all problems in a technical way

Experience: Contrasts develop mentally light effects. Here you see a kind of aura of the sun



Kanaldeckel mit Licht

Drain Cover with Light

To the soccer world championship in Kaiserslautern some of the drain holes were equipped by these autarky light systems. Drain covers are individualized with the city arms and become a light mark. A location is marked and noted as comfortable

Experience: The audience acts very creatively with this work



Fenster zum Rhein

Window to the Rhine River

In the youth hostel in Kaub/Rh. railway embankment and road separate the village from the river. No one is able to watch ships easily. This Problem is solved by this monitor/ window. It shows a real time picture of the river in the bistro of the house

Experience: It is taken for granted by the guests of the hostel


 

Der Leuchtturm

The Lighthouse

The aparatus oft the „Light Painting“ here is organized in a 360° version which is first shown in the Helios Lighthouse in Köln Ehrenfeld. The light sign shapes this location deeply

Experience: Residents react very positively to the slow moving picture and now see the lighthouse as their personal night table luminaire



Tanz der Schatten

Dance of Shades

This light object is to find in the foyer of the youthhostel in Kaub/Rhine. It is projecting a line of silhouettes to the walls and a clockwork like picture to the ceiling. The message: “This is a historical place” and “Everybody is welcome here”

Experience: Simple principals still please today
