Light art Installation »Quickfidel« – Light people conquer the urban space

They walk, stand, sit, dance, climb, embrace trees, hold hands, practice yoga…they are simply everywhere, in the castle´s park, at the pavillon and at the trees of the park, at the town hall, on the roof of the citicen´s hall, at the public swimming pool, at the train station…distributed in all of Ismaning you can find them, the jolly “light-people”. But they seem to find the castle´s park the most joyful location. Here the appear in greater numbers. 10 “light-people” romp about and stretch on the roof of the pavillon and delight the passers by. I am not allone, they think, there are plenty others and find joy in a great variety of activities which invite to do the same. (But please, don´t copy everything they do…one might fall off a tree or the roof 😉

The “light-people” symbolize the joyful citizens of Ismaning who, after a long winter pause, strive to go outside and take dilight in everything that brings joy. They transform Ismaning in a place of love of life and joyful activity. They invite to go outside, to discover the “light-people” and do something similar as they do. The winter is gone, spring is here and with it a new beginning, the awakening after hibernation.

38 “light-people” have been installed. They are designed individually and take on different poses which stand for the awakening and persistent joy of life of the citizens of ismaning.

In cooperation with Dominik Schatz and Philipp Kaiser “Lichtgestalten”
