Interview What was the first art/design/architecture work that impressed you? The skyscrapers Mannesmann building by Schneider-Esleben and DreischeibenHochhaus by HPP How do you reflect on light as a material or media in your work? I use light as a transformative material ­regarding social-political and urban issues, also including communication!That is why Peter Weibel calls my work ŒLichtpolitik¹! What was the guiding interest in your conceptual approach of your work we see during GLOW? Inside the city light plays a special role: i suggested to use light not as a guiding system, but to irritate people by it¹s absence or better by its anthropomorph appearance ­like breathing of a human body in public space! What made it interesting to work in Eindhoven? Eindhoven is known as a city of light ­ in research and practice! Frits Philips was given Eindhoven a point of identification ­ but also the city is known for it¹s Stedelijk van Abbe Museum ­which also has the Light-Space-Modulator of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy in it¹s collection ­ another Landmark and reference point in my life! What kind of respond do you expect from the audience? I hope people will feel the difference of the light i have in mind ­ reduction and modulation ­ that’s what i have on mind... But i am aware of the fact the GLOW interests a very experienced audience ­ so i will wait and see! Anything you would like to add? Also the University f.e. with it¹s HOLST lecture series in Fall this year!
