Levend Licht (Light Life) is a light installation proposed for the empty bridge houses in Rotterdam, a port city in the Netherlands. It is currently in development and will be realised in May 2017.
The project sheds light on the exceptional world of the bridge keeper’s profession and it’s partly gone and faded functionality. At the same time, Levend Licht suggests some kind of newly arrived surreal activity going on in these buildings.
Levend Licht is financially supported by Rotterdam CityLab010.
