Chiaroscuro
Māras Pond next to the Ojāra Vācieša/ Friča Brīvzemnieka intersection
Light installation
16.12.2021. – 19.12.2021.
The light installation is made up of large 3D flowers in abstract form that have been placed in Māras Pond. The circles of light placed in the middle of the flowers react to changes in the sounds in the surrounding environment, creating the illusion that the form of the flowers is blending in with the surface of the water. This effect is supplemented by laser beams which create games of light with the surface of the water and the flowers, corresponding to the rhythm of the music. The flowers operate with the assistance of ECO energy, obtained with the help of solar panels and are illuminated with energy storing equipment.
