Light is not just a stream of photons! In skillful hands, it can become a material for creativity. Examples include the work of the union Luzinterruptus … Their new lighting installation recently appeared in Switzerland, and it is dedicated to garbage.
The Spanish team Luzinterruptus is one of the site's permanent newsmakers Culturology. RF … We have already talked about many works from this creative association, for example, about the Pharmacy Herbs installation against light pollution in Madrid, about the work with the name Drinking water running through the streets dedicated to Madrid fountains, or about the glowing figures of Radioactive Control - symbols of nuclear paranoia.
Their new work, Plastic garbage guarding the museum, examines the problem of garbage in cities. It was presented the other day in the Swiss city of Winterthur, as part of the Oh, plastiksacki exhibition at the local Gewerbemuseum.
Installation Plastic garbage guarding the museum consists of two large baskets filled with garbage bags with a hill. Moreover, each of these elements glows from the inside.
The guys at Luzinterruptus refer to these two baskets as the "guards" of the museum, standing on either side of the entrance.
To receive these garbage bags, the participants of Luzinterruptus and the curators of the Oh, plastiksacki exhibition invited all residents of Winterthur to bring their garbage bags to a special collection point. For this, they received free tickets to the museum, and the artists received authentic material, from which they later created the light installation Plastic garbage guarding the museum.
As a result, to create Plastic garbage guarding the museum Luzinterruptus, about 5 thousand garbage bags brought by the inhabitants of Winterthur were used, which were gutted, filled with air and bright light of different colors.
