INFO
'Paardenkracht' (Horse Power)
is a fixed statue in Hasselt, Belgium.
For the Light Festival of City of Light Hasselt 2013,
we created a Light Installation based
on the artwork and the location.
The intension: make tribute to the statue.
We builded a water bassin in order to create
space around the artwork and to enlarge the site.
A soundscape was composed.
We added fountains, theatrical lighting
and smoke for the dramatical effect.
CONCEPT
"The creation of customized Light Installation
for fixed statues/monuments. With the intention
to bring tribute and give glory.
An installation based on the history and background
of the location and the area, with respect for the style
of the artwork and for the artist who created it.
The techniques that we use are tools
to maintain our goal: make good art.
AVAILABILITY
Sacred Places is available to create installations on
International Light Festivals or other occasions. These projects are always site-specific. In consultation with the organizer, we choose a statue/monument to create the installation.
