One more from Nobel Week Lights! By my first gaze, I wasn't too impressed by Victoria Verseau's Limina, but the second and third ones, and moving around the artwork changed all that. Its apparent simplicity conceals a variety of details, views and meanings, that unfold with some time and concentration.

Encor Studio has conveniently solved the question of transport of Interdependency by making the container part of the artwork. There's probably room for opening night outfits as well. As seen in Luna Nights, Leeuwarden, in 2024.

As I approached Charlotte Landelius's In a Heartbeat at Nobel Week Lights, I feared it would be a tear-jerk commercial for Red Cross. Luckily, I was wrong. I especially praise the editing, which didn't underline but presented the most important seconds to get the message through.

Divine Geometry by Those Guys Lighting is a hit at light art festivals, and rightly so. In addition to being simple and awesome, it nicely dotted Solsångaren's butt.

Some consider campfires to be historical places where the first people came together to share their stories. The most beautiful fairytales were thought of in the comfort of the fire’s warmth and the presence of others. It’s hard to imagine that these days however, a time when everyone is busy telling stories all the time. Look at them: tweeting around the Twitter fire in an attempt to accumulate as many listeners as possible and listening very little themselves. There’s not much solitude these days. Perhaps it’s time for a campfire 2.0.

My Camp-Fire installation at the Amsterdam Light Festival in 2014 is also a social experiment and was the first in a series of Camp-Fire installations of which the latest versions were exhibited at Burning Man in the Black Rock Desert in 2024 and at the Napa Lighted Art Festival in California in 2025.

Royal Sky by Janis Petersons also functioned as a fitting background for young dance performers – bringing light art together with performers is one of Nobel Week Lights' specialities.

One Way or Another by Tom Biddulph creates statements using traffic signs with slightly changed texts. Fun and political!

Seen at Nobel Week Lights, one of my favourite light art festivals, in Stockholm, one of my favourite cities, curated by Lara Szabo Greisman and Hans Davis, two of my favourite persons!

Another artwork by Gun Gordillo. Stratos plays with semi-opaqueness of the surface, diffusing the light cloud-like. Very beautiful, I'd say.

Gun Gordillo's neon work Porta Blanca shows a Porta in a form of a transparent but reflective plexiglass and a Blanca in form of neon tubes in a variety of hues of white. Seen at Copenhagen Contemporary, always worth a visit!

Visit to Nyt Lys at Sophienholm, close to Copenhagen was the scariest art experience for a while. The festival is in the park of the Sophienholm manor, and there is no lighting in the park whatsoever. Also, part of the park is actually woods. Also, it was foggy. And I was all alone in the pitch black park. I was quite sure I wouldn't get out of there in one piece.

I did, but I do have to admit, I walked faster than usual.

The art was very scant on light levels as well, if not in quality. I am biased, but my favourite was Disappearing Event by Elina Brotherus, the artist herself walking into water, projected on a rare light surface in the park.

The festival's last day is tomorrow January 25th. I totally recommend going, just don't go alone!

One more from Celle and them I'm done! Boris Petrovsky's TRUE&FALSE-isms in the Kometen exhibition is an example of neon letter tradition but also an installation.

Here's our group of light art curators wondering around a Regine Schumann piece in Kunstmuseum Celle's Kometen exhibition. Julia Otto (Left), the curator of the splendid exhibition, lead a most interesting and informative tour to the exhibition, not holding back behind the scenes information, which is always the most interesting! If you ever have a change to see an exhibtion with its curator, you should definitely do that!

A nine-inch nail with pink fringes in the middle of the Black Rock Desert marked, a year and a half ago, the spot where my Camp-Fire installation would rise at Burning Man — and with it the peak of a turbulent year filled with commissions for large, challenging art projects. After a year of reflection, my move to the isle of Marken now marks a new beginning, with once again the prospect of some beautiful, large-scale public art commissions ahead. #burningman #publicartinstallations #publicart #lightart #blackrockdesert

Kunstmuseum Celle's Cometen exhibition is a gift that just keeps on giving; there really were not too many uninteresting pieces. Here's Daniel Hausig's Sheet Lightning (I guess, my photo of the infos was terribly blurry). In spite of it's presumed name, the movement in the piece was slow and fluctuating.
