29

AKVĀRIJS

Location: Square next to Rīga City Gymnasium No. 3

The essence of the installation is to create for visitors the feeling that they have gone into an aquarium, into a mysterious domain where creatures live under water. The most recognizable Latvian fish, the “raudiņa” or roach, is at the core of the light object’s form and image. The turquoise blue trees transform into fantastic sea grasses or into peculiar corals. The fish, moving smoothly under the influence of the flow of air create the illusion of swimming, which is emphasized by the fins trembling and vibrating in the wind.
