Open call for Light installation works. Deadline 1/15/18

TAVA​2018OPEN​ ​CALL​ ​​- RADICAL​ ​LIGHT

TAVA2018 announces its open call for light installations under the theme RADICAL LIGHT. Artists and designers are invited to reconfigure spaces and provoke radical changes. Radical Light aims to highlight social, environmental, spatial and political issues. Let’s cast light on hidden or unspoken topics, facts and places!

We are looking for five out-door and one in-door installations. The festival encourages new and site-specific productions to raise awareness of social and urban issues and, at the same time, offer a chance to perceive light and/or space from a totally different perspective and receive a positive emotional impact.

Installations have to be ready by the evening of 24.10.
Festival dates: 25.-28.10.2018.
