OUR COLOUR REFLECTION

“Our Colour Reflection” resembles a rush of colour: more than 700 coloured mirrors cover the floor of the Schlossberg casemates in Graz. In varying diameters and heights, the mirrors reflect both the architecture and people. Colours and shapes are projected into the room. A playful and colourful, yet elegant world opens up, one that is subject to constant changes: influenced by movements of the audience, new moments and perspectives arise, again and again. Thus, Liz West’s artwork becomes a flowing exchange between viewers and their surroundings, between their own perspectives and the expansive installation.

location: Schlossbergbühne Kasematten

This installation is made possible with the kind support of E-Werk Franz.
