About project
Even though autumn evenings tend to be chilly, this year they will light up with clouds of fireflies. Maotik takes his inspiration from the mysterious atmosphere that these almost fairylike creatures bring to the ordinary world. He has thus created a poetic installation that plays with the methods of mutual communication among swarms of fireflies.
Light Sowers is an interactive installation, and it will be up to the festival attendees to respond with movement to the lasers that illuminate them. Hundreds of silent and dim objects can therefore be transformed into a living world of fluttering night creatures only through their actions, as with a mere wave of the hand the attendees can themselves provide these fireflies with a source of light.
