Ungt Lys: Light Art Workshop with Jakob Kvist
In collaboration with the Municipality of Copenhagen and the Danish Arts Foundation, UNGT LYS invites you to a light workshop with light artist Jakob Kvist at the urban space Flækken in Nordhavn on Saturday, October 7th from 12:00-18:00. Jakob Kvist specializes in temporary and permanent light decorations, sculptures, and installations in public spaces.
During the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to work on their own site-specific pieces in the urban environment, focusing on utilising both natural daylight and artificial light.
The workshop begins with a brief presentation and introduction to light art. Participants will then be divided into groups, where they will assemble a luminaire and receive an introduction to basic techniques. Afterwards, participants will explore the area where their works are ideated and sketched out. This will be followed by a lunch break, during which participants can discuss their work and collaborate with each other and Jakob. Afterwards, a final test of materials, colour filters, and more will take place before the actual production of the artworks begins. The workshop concludes with an exhibition where participants will present and discuss their works.
The work made during this workshop may form the basis for a potential upcoming artwork by Jakob Kvist, so even after the temporary work is taken down, your contribution may continue to have a life beyond this installation.
