Guiding you through a mysterious journey through light and fog on the hill of Kontraskjæret, the installation explores the optical phenomenon of the Brocken Spectre that occurs on any foggy mountain side or in the forest. By drawing inspiration from this wonderful phenomenon, Ligh3ence takes you on an adventurous experience, creating a mysterious and engaging play of light, shadow and fog and an immersive display in shifting shades of white that harmonize with the movement of the trees.
