nunc

Solo exhibition · RUBRECHTCONTEMPORARY at KAISERandCREAM, Wiesbaden

nunc developed as a three-part spatial installation. In the first room, Familie Büllenbrock, the laboratory installation ante and the light stelae statum formed a spatial constellation. A red light corridor containing inventa led through to elysium in the third room.

elysium

Light installation, 2017 · stainless steel, silicone and/or Hybrid Polymer, lighting technology, various materials, sand · floor elements: 4 mm stainless steel, H 9 cm

elysium developed as a walk-in, site-related light installation. The sand-covered floor and a walkway extending into the room structured access, sightlines and movement. The light flowers stood on 9 cm high floor elements made from 4 mm stainless steel and, together with light, colour and material, formed a coherent spatial situation.
