LOCATION
Volkshochschule (VHS)
ORGANISMUS
Installation
An installation of multiple artificial bodies in space. Light sequences pulse through a self-illuminating exoskeleton, while delicate kinetic contractions draw the bodies together, making them appear alive. The objects shift between dreamlike utopia and confrontational dystopia – a play on vitality and artificiality.
ISABELLE KIRSCH
Isabelle Kirsch creates installations emerging from darkness and crafts multilayered visual worlds. She often works with found objects from urban spaces, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in immersive landscapes of color and light.
INTERVIEW
The installation ‘Organism’, which will be presented at this year’s LICHTROUTEN, consists of artificial bodies that create a living illusion with luminous LEDs or kinetic movements. Isabelle Kirsch combines technology with natural structures to create a balance between utopia and dystopia. For her, light is a central medium that creates immersive experiences and challenges the viewer’s perception. Read what tips she gives young artists and how long it takes from the idea to the finished work of art:
