Natalija R. Črnčec: Blossoms of Light
7 May–14 June 2025
MMC KIBLA/KiBela
You are cordially invited to the opening of the light installation Blossoms of Light by the artist Natalija R. Črnčec, which will take place on Wednesday, 7 May 2025, at 7 p.m. in the KiBela, space for art.
The latest light installation by Natalija R. Črnčec creates an all-encompassing atmosphere of beauty. One of the most remarkable innovations of this exhibition is the emerging biomorphic form “blossoms of light”, which she has been developing since 2014. The elemental nature of the components, the spatial arrangement of the blossoms of light, their glow, their color and their music electrify and energize the space and allow the beauty of the particular experience and moment to flow into our perception. The composition of the light installation permeates our senses along the edges of colors, melodic structures, light fields and gentle, spinning dances of the blossoms of light. The spatial arrangement uses UV light as a light source. UV light awakens fluorescent colors and illuminates the blossoms of light. The blossoms glow in their beauty and appearance and rustle in their colors.
The symbiotic coexistence of both media simultaneously enables a collaborative dimension, which manifests itself in the harmony of both the visual and the musical. In its voluminousness and gentle rotation of the blossoms of light, there is a concentrated microdynamics of movement and the softness of oscillating lightness. The light body breathes with each element – the blossom of light separately and holistically.
The environment is transformed by visible and invisible forces that enhance the visitor’s experience. When the eyes are open, the body of light becomes more intense; when they are closed, the music becomes more intense. By capturing both mediums simultaneously, we achieve a fusion of two worlds that form a unity and enable the intensification of different perceptual and impression effects. In the responsive light of what is heard and seen, the inner eye moves deeper, where a premonition of a certain inner balance can be perceived.
