Out and about in the light 2022, Potsdam
On the way in the light. Why, surely! On the third weekend in January, our LIGHT composition “Soundless Music” was performed in downtown Potsdam. With the concept developed specifically for “On the Road in Light 2022”, the center of Potsdam was staged in a composition of colors in the evening hours, from Friday (January 21st) to Monday (January 24th), thus expressing the universal process of THERMODYNAMICS. Starting with shades of blue on Friday and ending with shades of red on Monday, the LIGHT composition worked with 18 buildings, each with 24 light scenarios that harmonize and interact with one another, creating an immersive walk through the “total work of art” of public space, architecture, and light and allow time. Kicking off on Friday, the beauty of the cold winter months was celebrated in calm BLUE and INDIGO combinations, which gave way to the optimistic GREEN of spring on Saturday and was replaced by the WARM summer joy of YELLOW and ORANGE tones on Sunday. The dynamic process concluded on Monday with a rather contemplative backdrop of DARK RED, which was accompanied at the FINALE with lighting moods from all the MAIN COLORS of the color spectrum.
„We did not forget you“. This LIGHT ART campaign was linked to the state capital Potsdam’s desire to convey to its citizens and its cultural institutions that it has not forgotten the importance of CULTURE in the city and the relevance of everyone working in the cultural scene, even in these difficult times. This weekend, everyone celebrated the beauty of life and art in and with (light) culture. The illumination was realized by the following partners: State Capital Potsdam (organizer), P3 Projekt GmbH (organization), Ruairí O’Brien. Lighting design (lighting concept), TLT Event AG (technical implementation) Left: www.ruairiobrien-lichtkunst.de On the way in the light.
