Event Details

Sand dunes prove that you can move some mountains, as forces of wind constantly change their shape - maybe even completely eradicating what was once an insurmountable height. Representing the sand dune by an illuminated top ridge, Dune is sculpted by unseen and unfelt winds. A row of 12 LED lines move constantly, reflecting the ever-changing landscape of a desert and the hypnotic beauty of its endless rises and falls.
