THE MAGIC TRAFFIC LIGHT

Briāna Street, opposite of “Piens” restaurant

The Magic Traffic Light are two different artists’ interpretations of movement and the people involved in traffic, the common element – traffic lights – familiar to us all.
These are graphic video collages, playing freely and disrupting the normal traffic light sequence and signal duration, so changing the rhythms of people and the street. At the same time they take an ironic view of the entities they have encountered and the associations they bring to mind.

Project concept and executed by Mārtiņš Blanks, Ieva Grase
Project financed by Riga City Council
