Mühlbach Mobile
2024
with Franz Ehn
- Lichtfest Krems (AT) 2024
Mühlbach Mobile is an installation like an echo, a ghost of the vanished Mühlbach in Krems.
The installation consists of moving acrylic glass panels that refract and reflect light. These light plays evoke the waves of a flowing stream, creating the impression that the Mühlbach, which once flowed at this location, is being brought back to life.
The Kremser Mühlbach is a prime example of how humans shape and redirect waterways. Its disappearance from the cityscape is a loss that we are now becoming aware of, especially in the context of climate change and rising temperatures.
Cities are constantly changing, and the needs of people are changing with them. Could we bring back the rivers that once were?
