Charlotte Dachroth und Ole Jeschonnek
In their installations, Charlotte Dachroth and Ole Jeschonnek use a completely new way of making light visible. They create three-dimensional bodies of light, called ‘Lichtvolumen’, that float in space and undermine our everyday perception of light: the light does not expand into space but is concentrated to one spot; it does not need external influences to find its form but shapes itself from within.
With these unexpected impressions, which need to be experienced first hand and cannot be reproduced by photographs, the artists not only bring our own perception to our attention, they also alter and extend it.
The light itself becomes the content of the artistic expression.
