Luminale 2014, Frankfurt

New Building, Installation

Performance: Structural Design
Work Phases: 1-6

Completion: 2014

The installation 'Twinkle Twinkle' enlightens the square in front of the Deutsche Bank towers. 157 glass prisms form a sparkling rotational symmetric vortex changing with every movement of the spectator. During the day the sculpture appears almost incorporeal whereas the illumination during the night creates an eye-catching figure.

The installation was part of the Luminale 2014. This most important lightart festival across the world converts Frankfurt biennially into a laboratory for exceptional experiments.

Twinkle Twinkle is a project of Glasbau Hahn, NE–AR Nixdorff Etchegorry Architecture Research, lichtundsoehne – lighting & visual design, osd – office for structural design, studioheyhey – visual communication.
