Flower Strip
Artist: Aether & Hemera (design studio)
Location: Herengracht
Every spring, the Netherlands bursts into vivid colors as bulbs shoot and thousands of flowers blossom. The Dutch landscape is complemented by beautiful stripes of color. Visitors from all over the world travel to The Netherlands to be able to experience rows of flowers stretching to the horizon.
Flower Strip from Aether & Hemera gives you the possibility to enjoy the same aesthetic of flowering bulbs in the winter months. The artwork gives the phenomenon a new context by using light and placing the flowers into the water of the Amsterdam Canal right next to the famous Ambassade Hotel.
Aether & Hemera is a multi disciplinary design studio. Their work lies at the intersection of contemporary installation art, light art and interaction design. Light and digital media are combined to create a space that connects people to their surroundings. The studio was founded by the Italian Gloria Ronchi and Claudio Bengi in 2008. Ronchi has a background in science and fine arts while Bengi studies media architecture. With their work they try to provoke memories, explore esthetic interactions and create a connection between human experiences.
