Credits:

Concept-production: visual lighting group Beforelight
Electrical works: Sakis Dimitriou, Giorgos Tsiaparas
Planning: Municipality of Kapetanellis

Information:

Location: Public Space & Iris
Opening: 19 June at 20.30

In the Framework:

After the award-winning Light Sgrafto at Agia Markella Square and the re-activation of Photosynaxis in the area of Kronos, two new lighting installations will be produced in key neighbourhoods of Elefsina, in order to form a network of dynamically related lighting interventions. As in every project by the group, the aim is to involve the residents of the neighbourhood in specifc stages of the creative process, through three organised meetings/workshops and other methods of consultation. The fnal artistic result seeks to spread throughout Elefsina, even to purely residential neighbourhoods, composing a potential new route in which the stations of these various light installations enrich the city’s nightscape.
