Light Anemones
Light Anemones is a versatile light sculpture installation that moves with time and space.
During the day, sunlight and the surroundings are reflected in the curved titanium-stainless steel mirrors. In the darkness of night, linear lights unfold their play of light along the entire concave and convex structure, with their rotating centre. Each installation interacts with every other installation, which together create an even more complex light image and give the impression of originating from a different time continuum.
On land, the artworks strive towards the light like living creatures and merge with the mirrored silhouette of the surrounding buildings and landscapes to create a unique symphony of light.
On the water, the light anemones float gently side by side and dance in harmony with the movements of the wind and water. At night, they appear in the darkness like lighthouses flickering from afar.
The visitor experiences a moment of harmonious symbiosis and at the same time one of contradiction through what blooms here in the light and is artificial in nature. Visitors share the protected, mysterious light space, the mini-ecosystem - they are mirrored observers and participate in a unique interplay of light, reflections and geometric shapes.

high-gloss titanium-coated stainless steel mirror on curved aluminium honeycomb panels, stainless steel angles, coloured high-efficiency LED strips on rotating platform, synchronised, programmed light & sound show; 2,5 x 3 x 3 m per installation; storm-proof & weatherproof; IP65; 28 Meters of LED Stripes per Installation; power consumption: 230V, ≈1000 watts per installation, Schuko plug; each installation communicates with each other via wireless DMX;
Exhibition on the water: the installations float on pontoon platforms; each platform is 2m x 2m.
Exhibition on land: a simple barrier is required, with optional guarding and/or a pedestal.
Sound: 360° ambient sound boxes along the field of view on the installations and / or also on the installation.
Sustainable Development
The materials used are made of advanced sandwich composites that reduce material dimensions many times over, save additional materials, reduce weight and freight costs, and are recyclable. In addition, the installations use replaceable LED technologies that minimize power consumption and allow for sustainable reuse.
