Sharjah MILKY WAY DISTRICT. Visualisation: Annemette Larsen, 2008.
LIGHTSCAPE 2001-2008
Sharjah illuminated by giant videoscreens – sketches for skyscraber curtainwalls.
The project is an artistic adaptation of the traditional light adornment of skyscraper buildings in the area and calls for visual art, architecture and design into play.

Note:
LIGHTROPE was part of the initial program DACE, outline for a Danish-Arabic Cultural Exchange, 2001-02. In February 2008 LIGHTSCAPE was one of three projects planned to be realized in Sharjah´s public space. It failed due to the financial crisis. The two other projects were MOONLIGHT OASIS & SHARJAH DIALOGUES.
LIGHTSCAPE - The Snow Queen was finally presented as an installation at the exhibition NOMAD ACADEMY GOES PUBLIC, Sharjah Art Museum, December 2008.
