Kronvalda Park

Light installation  of 40 light masks from the African interior and traditional music from the Tuva tribe

Forty identical masks coming from Bwindi National Park, at the innermost heart of black Africa, are placed like small monoliths, resembling ancient terracotta finds at an archaeological site.The rite comes alive when the artificial light alters the hues of the masks, creating a still dance supported by the bi-vocal sounds of the Tuva people of Central Asia. This dance in turn paints a picture with shadows.

Rimani Srl. was founded in July 2015 as an ‘innovative start up’. Its recent history, however, owes its values of innovation, technology and prestige to the thirty years’ expertise of founding member, Carlo Albano.
