This installation consists of a row of fountains that create a four by four meter wall of water. Like a movie screen, various images of European fountains, including several fountains from Bergkamen’s partner cities, are projected onto the water.<\/p>\n
As such, it depicts a “fountain in a fountain.” It also creates a connection between the light art object and its location, the Platz der Partnerst\u00e4dte (Partner City Square). In addition, the presentation gives the water a sculptural quality, enabling a new understanding of the fountain in general. The work plays with the dynamics of changing projections and colors.<\/p>\n
The installation of the light fountain at the Platz der Partnerst\u00e4dte in Bergkamen-Mitte was created in 2002 as part of a student competition in Timm Ulrichs’ master class at the Kunstakademie M\u00fcnster. From April to October, the fountain operates on Fridays from dusk until midnight.<\/p>\n
