To our eyes, darkness is the absence of light, and light appears as the origin of life. In the world premiere of the awe-inspiring installation Spiraling Into Infinity by Amsterdam based artist duo Children of the Light, light is staged as a fleeting yet tangible presence that is playfully roaming the nebulous exhibition space of MU. Shifting colour, speed and direction, the light evokes different moods and modes of being. The soundscape by Jacob Lekkerkerker intensifies your perception of space. Like Matisse making a spontaneous penlight drawing in the air, Children of the Light – although on a slightly larger scale – do not only represent the visible, but reveal also what lies beyond.

On view from sundown on Friday 21 January. Spiral around MU to experience the installation from outside. Bring your smartphone and headphones & scan the QR code on the window to hear the full experience. Tip: drop by when it gets dark!
