Overview

„Light Anemones” are made of curved mirrors of titanium-stainless steel. During the day, the surroundings is reflected in the anemones. In the darkness of night, the three installations unfold their play of light.

Lines of light rotate centrally in the middle of the installations and are reflected by the outer struts. The three works interact, striving towards the light, merging with the mirrored silhouette of the surrounding buildings and landscapes to create a unique illusion.

Visitors experience a moment of harmonious symbiosis and, at the same time, one of contradiction due to what blossoms here in the light and what is of an artificial nature. Together, visitors share the sheltered place, the mini-ecosystem – they are mirrored observers and take part in a unique interplay of different light sequences, reflections and geometric forms which fragmentarily create a complex image.
