JANEZ GROŠELJ: White Noise
light installation
garden next to the Križevniška Church // until 14 June
OPENING: Friday, 23 May, at 9:30 p.m.

A series of light cocoons, entangled strings of light, direct a characteristic sound, known as white noise, which represents a set of sounds of different audible frequencies, among which none dominates, from their interior into the surroundings. The sound phenomenon is known for its calming power; because it resembles the sound that a baby is accustomed to from its mother’s womb, many parents use it to lull the child to sleep. This is also where the author’s inspiration for the artistic interpretation of white noise comes from, in which he recognises a unique analogy with the information (white) noise of the modern world, which, in Grošelj’s words, ‘erases meanings and creates backgrounds in which everything and nothing becomes inextricably intertwined.’

JANEZ GROŠELJ holds a Master’s degree in architecture, but is increasingly moving away from building design and discovering his vocation in the smaller and more intimate field of art and light art. In addition to his artistic and curatorial work, he also shares his technical knowledge and experiences in the field of programming as a consulter and mentor in workshops. In recent years, he has collaborated with several intermedia projects, which he regularly presents abroad, at Lighting Guerrilla Festival.

On view from outside, daily: 9.30 pm – 11.30 pm
At Wednesdays and Sathurdays the garden will be open to visitors from 9.30 pm to 11.30 pm
