Detmold Design Week

Detmolder Design Woche

WHERE: Detmold, Germany

WHEN: May 2022

WHAT: The Detmold Design Week is an annual event that aims to draw art and design enthusiasts into Detmold's studios and vacant buildings and to offer new ideas in the field of design and art at a qualitative stage. The first Detmold Design Week in 2022 attracted more than 1500 visitors 

PROJECT: video installation projected onto the facade of an abandoned hotel, reflecting life and joy through the ages. Recurring loops introduce blocks as they appear, move, break, and disappear just to start over. The revival and abandonment of one and the same place are condensed into the simple form of a cube. Color and shape adapt to the atmosphere of each phase and ensure excitement with a climax. With abstract and simple means, the artists want to create an experience of change in the context of time and space. While the intangible nature of the projection embodies both the emotions and possibilities associated with change, the building sets the stage. 

Installation made in TouchDesigner
