Project summary

This project will focus on the universality of art (presented in urban space) and the possibilities of modification and flexibility of the art work and the artist himself. For the Resident Artist, it will be an opportunity to co-operate with festivals of light from three countries – Poland, Czech Republic, Norway and create one work that, after appropriate modifications, can bepresented successfully at each of them. This will correspond to the very nature of light - in a sense universal for different parts of the world, on the other hand, constantly subject to change - the light is still moving.
