The world in reflection

On a cold December night in 2018, I was taking photographs of reflected light in the puddles of the Docklands in Cork along with others from Blarney Photography Club.

Henry would have been on the light stick, and I’m sure I’ve posted other photos from the night, over the years as the lights are striking.

HIMMELI II

In the frame of our project PRESERVED // Rågens rike / Finnland 204/25 we dealt with the traditional himmeli objects that are made of rye straw and are now used as a traditional Christmas decoration. In the former days they would be used to ask for a good harvest. In our winter chapter (November 2024) we asked the people of the area where our project is taking place (Vörå in Finland-Sweden) to join us to create a huge himmeli by using light tubes. The village came and in joint forces the ephermeral himmeli installation was created.

The whole project is carried out with the help of the village.

Our next stay will take place soon, stay tuned.

#London was good, but the one day visit was just too short. I did have time to see two friends and two exhibitions and have several meals.

#AnthonyMcCall' Solid Light at #TateModern was obviously good. In addition to artworks, it was interesting to see how they made people interact.

#ElectricDreams was very interesting from the history of #LightArt view point. Also, quite a many female artists, finally. And no, they weren't there just because of their gender.

Another #Interrail's first leg done!

Now in Turku waiting for the ferry to Stockholm, from there to Lüdenscheid for Lichtrouten #LightArt festival via an exhibition in Kolding. A quick stop in London for Anthony McCall and friends, a video mapping conference in Lille, dash to Skopje for a project planning session for a festival (also, bureks), a week in Belgrade (was supposed to be relaxing, let's see), another festival in Kronach and back home with a coffee break in STHLM.

Should be fun!
