DARK MATTER Exhibition in Berlin
WHITEvoid, WIL and Ayrton invite you to experience the DARK MATTER Exhibition in Berlin on June 26th at 11 am.Join us for an exclusive backstage tour with WHITEvoid Technical Director & WIL Speaker Natalie HECKL followed by a lunch.DARK MATTER is a parallel cosmos of expansive light installations in which the boundaries between the real and the digital worlds become blurred. Within the pitch-black rooms of a converted factory, the visitor embarks on a journey through seven partly interactive works. Light, movement and sound fuse into emotional choreographies of luminous shapes and colors.Behind this pioneering experience is visionary light artist Christopher Bauder and his design studio WHITEvoid.Collectively the team’s extensive portfolio includes the prolific installations DEEP WEB and SKALAR at Kraftwerk Berlin. In 2014, Bauder and WHITEvoid were also responsible for LICHTGRENZE, in which they imagined of and produced 8,000 luminescent balloons to mark the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.Not to be missed!
