ART

PINK TWINS – REFRACTION

‘Refraction’, the two-channel video installation by Pink Twins, transports the audience to enjoy evergreen Chinese gardens through animated caleidoscopic wormholes. During Reflektor, the work is projected in Vuosaari, where Finnish autumnal nature and idealized artificial landscapes of Suzhou are united in a meditative temporal and spatial transition.

SUN EFFECTS – DISCO SEANCE

A seance is an attempt to communicate with spirits and we did so by throwing them a party. Set among the tombstone like hedges, the colourful installation flirts with the coming spooky season, the 70’s and the idea of stop motion animation. Stayin’ alive in the graveyard!

STORY

REFLEKTOR is the story of a group of dedicated Nordic light geeks and explorers from Denmark and Finland coming together to explore the emotional truths and daring artistic expressions and boundaries of Nordic Light Art. The outcome is carefully curated light art experiences that calls for new sensibilities towards light and darkness.
