Interactive Dome
September 13th, 2018 – from 19:00
Havnepladsen
When seeing the NACHLeuchten Dome created by Nils-R. Schultze beside the runway by day, the audience already cannot help being impressed. As a dome inflated only with air, the first thing that wows people is its size.
Then it becomes natural to wonder more about this art piece created for AWOW and Havnepladsen in Aarhus. What is the purpose of it? What will it do?
