[Interview] Luftwerk Takes You Inside “INsite” at Farnsworth House
You might have heard it said that the past illuminates the present. But what if we in the present illuminated the past — literally and wonderfully?
That’s what INsite, last year’s light and sound installation at National Trust Historic Site Farnsworth House, achieved in spectacular measure with a hypnotic video composition set to original music that played on and throughout the classic Mies van der Rohe-designed space. (Check out the video after the jump.) Created by artist collaborative Luftwerk, the piece played with the site’s transparency and minimalism to create a new experience for visitors.
INsite ended four months ago, but its beauty has stayed with us. So we caught up with artist Petra Bachmaier — who, with Luftwerk partner, Sean Gallero, created the multi-sensory experience — to learn more about their work and the creative vision behind it.
