Meeting Light

Another light installation of the fifth edition of the Festival Umeå Autumn was located at the river bank, using the trees in the southern part, in Varvsgatan.

It was named “Meeting Light” and designed by True Ahrens and Therese Sundqvist. South bank of the river was enclosed in a pink light.

There you could find love declarations immortalized on park benches. You could see it on hold or come close, since the park was lit and extinguished candles seemingly at random. To obtain this effect, motion detectors, LED lights and headlamps were used.

From the northern bank of the river you can see this on hold, but on site you will be involved in the spectacle. Depending on how you move, creating places for meetings in a pink shimmer of light. A sudden light that inspires a call, or who might turn rest on a bench for a love session.
