night shift
A light installation created for the office space of Atelier Nord on the 3rd floor of a building on the south end of the park Olaf Ryes Plass in Oslo.
It was a piece meant to be experienced from the outside after office hours (On the opening there was an opportunity to also experience it inside the office space).
I was imagining what happened in the space after the people have left and the darkness has taken over. Shadows of plants growing to fill the space, maybe trying to establish contact with the trees in the park outside? Shadows of office furniture floating through the space.
This was my first venture into mechanical moving lights. I created a system of carts on rails inspired by the trams passing by outside.
night shift was one of two works I made for the group exhibition
signalfeil at Atelier Nord.
