Transfiguration
“Transfiguration – The Transformation”, Onionlab (ESP) and Xavi Bové (ESP)
Light and sound transform the space and turn it into a new, unique experience. The surrounding architecture, whether familiar or not, becomes part of an experience for the eyes and ears.
The interplay of live orchestral music and precisely controlled aesthetic lighting allows the auditorium of the Graz Opera House to be experienced as a completely new space. The audience is swept away by sound and light and taken on a journey that opens up completely new perspectives on the architecture of the space and the musical experience. The lighting installation follows the rhythm of the music, using state-of-the-art technology to precisely control the lighting and create moods that appeal to, awaken and touch the senses and emotions. The installation “The Transformation” was first shown on the occasion of the 600th anniversary of the nave of Girona Cathedral and has since been shown in Bilbao and New York.
Onionlab specializes in oversized projections and virtual reality and creates interfaces between art, design and technology with its works. The Spanish artist collective is currently based in Barcelona, but its audiovisual productions can be seen all over the world. Xavi Bové is an artist, curator and professor. His main interest lies in audiovisual projections and video mapping, where art and technology, image and sound are closely interwoven.
“Transfiguration – Die Verwandlung” will be shown at all Klanglicht evenings in the Opera Graz. You will be given Access with the Festival Pass. More Information here .
