newsletter november 2015

It´s been a long and busy autumn for me, but the dark times are not over yet!
Below you will find information about projects just about to happen, ongoing and completed projects since end of August.

—UPCOMING—

Dark Ecology Journey
Kirkenes, Nikel, Zapolyarny, Murmansk nov 26-30th
barents-still-nl

Just before the climate summit starts in Paris I will take part in the second Dark Ecology journey in the border area between Norway and Russia.

During my residency in September in Nikel and Vardø I ended up with two projects I wanted to realize and thanks to the amazing production team they both seem to be happening!
Both projects are outdoors: In Nikel I will show Barents (mare incognitum), a large-scale projection of the ocean slowly rotating, filmed with my orbital camera. More specifically it´s the Barents Sea, filmed at the border of Russia and Norway, pointing towards the North Pole.

The second installation is the crossing, a light motion installation in a very Stalker-like environment outside Zapolyarny.

Check out the complete Dark Ecology program.
