Extra Light

Science Centrum NEMO Amsterdam 2013

Installation with mechanically moving objects in old projectors. A magical landscape with animals and plants made of surprising materials. Overhead projectors project a slow-moving full-screen landscape of transparent plastics. Magic lanterns light up strange creatures, scenes are created by alternating on and off. Mirrored water-reflections and shadow trees turn this into a little story in which visitors can dream away.

20 minutes – screen 6-10m.
