Mystery of Creation
High Resolution:
Artists throughout history have been inspired by the mystery of creation. The enigma of birth and death, of coming and going, and of the transformation embodied in both life and the passing of life have all been the foundation for intriguing works. Vivid Sydney continues this tradition with Mystery of Creation (Fragments of the Seasons).
This poem of light and sound is a visual and aural installation projecting nature's changes onto a concrete facade:
Flowers blossom, only to wilt; trees wither, only to grow anew. The wind whispers in the tree; its leaves embody alchemy in the transformation of living colour, from green into yellow and red; leaves dance and drop off in a storm; and once again you see a bare tree.
The installation is a profoundly natural, visual sanctuary that offers you an escape from the everyday urban challenges of Sydney. Dive into the here and now – where inspiration becomes light, light becomes image, and both combine with a mellifluous musical accompaniment to represent the cycle of the seasons.
Heinz Kasper is a lighting designer and visual artist based in Europe. He is dedicated to exploring light in relation to colour, form and environment, as a medium of creative expression. Aside from his light design activities in the spheres of performing arts, exhibitions and architecture, his oeuvre also includes abstract colour compositions and digitally reprocessed photographic pieces. He also focuses his creative output on the conceptualisation, visualisation and actualisation of inventive and imaginary environments and topographies.
Robert Faldner collaborated on this installation in the roles of musician and composer, creating the contemporary musical arrangement that accompanies the visual artwork.
