These poetic trips irritate in a playful way, confront us with our expectations – a tightrope walk between poetry and nightmare.

The artworks of Electronic Shadow captivate through their aesthetics – light and colour are carefully chosen - and are interactive. For the purpose of the exhibition the artist couple has built 1 models of Ex-isles, an originally large installation shown all around the world and Vibrations, a water sculpture.
