"LIGHT" an exhibition of works on paper and micro light objects by Ruairí O'Brien

A big thank you to all who made it to the opening of my "LIGHT" exhibition of "works on paper" and "micro LIGHT objects" last Saturday night in Chemnitz. In the photo posted, you can see a selection from the "Dark Sky" series I recently completed during my time on the lovely Greek island of Kea for the "Rethink the Night" workshop. Kea is famous among astronomers and lighting experts for the "starry skyscape" one can enjoy due to the extreme lack of light pollution. The exhibition is running until the 07.01.2016. Gallery OBEN - Kathrin Lahl, Chemnitz, Germany.

Exhibition LIGHT - LICHT - Ruairí O'Brien - Gallery OBEN - Chemnitz - Germany

Last saturday night, “LIGHT”, an exhibition of my “works on paper and light objects” opened in the Gallery OBEN, Chemnitz, Germany. The paintings of “light and darkness”, the installations, the urban light sculptures/ street lighting and public buildings are not part of the exhibition.
However, in the drawings one can see where the large-scale public works, such as the lighting of the market square in Freiberg, the "Hologram façade" in Jena or the war memorial in Zeithain, have been inspired or indeed tested in the “mind beforehand”.
