A sensorial installation of floating, glowing jellyfish in various sizes. Inspired by the biological transformation from larva to jellyfish and their collective growth under ideal conditions. Set against the dramatic fjord landscape of Geiranger, the work becomes a movement of light and sound – where nature and art merge into a shared experience.
Anže Kreč
Anže Kreč is a light artist working across theatre, film, architectural lighting, and light art installations. His work explores the transformative power of light to shape space, perception, and emotion. As a member of Lighting Guerrilla and a citizen of NSK (Neue Slowenische Kunst), he engages in experimental and conceptual approaches to illumination.
The Knot is a self-sustained light installation that merges the analog and digital worlds through a multidimensional loop. It invites participants to reflect on both societal and personal systems by generating energy with hand-crank generators – visually represented by a central illuminated structure.

A site-specific spatial installation, created in collaboration with the Marine Recycling Center in Sotenäs, Sweden.
Shapes are sculptural forms inspired by wind and the ever-changing currents of the sea. These translucent figures, made from repurposed fishing nets, come to life through the play of light and the choreography of wind and water.
The work continues the exploration started with Underworld, presented in Geiranger in 2023 — a meeting point for art, nature, and reuse, where form, place, and movement are in constant dialogue.
Projectorpøblene
This year’s work by ProjektorPøblene emerges at the intersection of light, sound, and landscape. The installation builds on last year’s piece in Storfossen – a site-specific project shaped directly by ice, water, and stone.
Now, the focus goes deeper into the structures of the waterfall. Light and sound are used to distinguish and highlight different elements – stone, ice, water – each becoming a distinct voice in a polyphonic composition.
The goal is not to cover the landscape, but to reveal what already exists beneath the surface.
The artwork is rooted in time and place, shaped through a growing trust between artist and landscape. The waterfall itself becomes an active part of the piece.
Visitors are invited into an audiovisual dialogue – where nature is not only illuminated, but answers back.

A monumental installation with participation from children at primary schools in Norway, Sweden and Slovenia. Mycelium is an underground fungal network vital to ecosystems: It breaks down organic matter, recycles nutrients, and connects plant roots in a quiet, cooperative community. Often invisible and overlooked, it acts like a natural internet—exchanging information, maintaining balance, and supporting new life.
The international Field of Mycelium project is inspired by this natural logic: decomposition, reuse, and interconnectedness. Children from diverse backgrounds create glowing, mushroom-like objects from recycled materials—items otherwise considered waste. Like mycelium itself, the project uses art to nurture ecological awareness, community, and cross-cultural collaboration.
Each workshop and new exhibition site expands the “field,” growing organically and relationally—just like nature. This is not just an aesthetic display. It’s a living reminder that through decomposition, cooperation, and reuse, a sustainable future can emerge. Even from the darkness of pollution, something luminous can grow—if we create it together.

Car Crash, Insomnia, Burnout and Love is an analogue light show – a unique audiovisual experience of sound and light that unfolds live, in the moment.
The performance is both a visual concert premiere for composer Martin Smoge’s upcoming album, and a collaborative art project with visual artist Cecilie Hole.
Inspired by the psychedelic tradition of liquid light shows from the 1960s and 70s, the expression is brought into a new era and a new context – set between the fjord and mountains of Geiranger.
An analogue, living light show where music and flowing oil colours merge in real time.
Using three overhead projectors, live-mixed oil colour compositions, webcams, and projection, the artists create an immersive space where light and sound are tightly interwoven.
The music controls the intensity, rhythm, and movement of the colours in the light, and the organic, analogue materials make each second unique and unpredictable.

Suspended holographic projection with sound
From a central point, light forms bloom into the air – digital plants that grow, shift, and respond in real time. Bloom is a suspended holographic projection where sound acts as a generative force, shaping the growth and movement of the visuals moment by moment.
The piece treats sound not as background, but as a catalyst – actively sculpting form and behaviour.
By merging generative systems with organic motion and sonic response, Bloom invites us to see growth not as something fixed, but as a dynamic, living process in constant dialogue with its environment.
Those Guys Lighting
What if the night had dreams of its own – strange, glowing, and full of motion? Shining Fields invites you into a landscape where such dreams come to life.
Over 400 tall light reeds, arranged like wild grasses in an open field, pulse with shifting waves of colour. A coordinated light sequence flows through the space, accompanied by a layered and immersive soundscape. Light and sound move together, creating a calm, rhythmic atmosphere – somewhere between wind, breath, and thought.
The reeds are placed in a natural, free formation, as if the landscape itself had grown them. Visitors may move close, or observe from a distance. Up close, the experience feels immersive and otherworldly. From afar, the entire field seems to glow and move – suspended between reality and dream.
Those Guys Lighting
At the heart of this installation is a luminous ring of 24 laser beams – forming a space for presence, stillness, and transformation.
Divine Geometry is more than a visual experience. It is an inward journey. Many visitors have been deeply moved – some to tears – and often remain with the piece for long stretches of time.
A specially composed 30-minute soundtrack, created in collaboration with award-winning Latvian sound engineer Pēteris Pāss, guides the experience through rhythm and resonance.
The installation explores the harmony and complexity of nature. The ring becomes a symbol of life, rhythm, and the mathematical beauty that connects all living things.

Rings Around the World is conceived as a reflection on what we choose to protect and hold close. This first ring establishes the core idea of the project.
Encircling a living tree, the ring frames nature as something both precious and vulnerable. The circular form creates a space for pause and presence, inviting visitors to step inside and bring with them what they value most — family, friendship, and hope.

One simple light – and everything changes.
Let there be light is a site-specific light installation inspired by the act of creation and the unique architecture of Geiranger Church. Here, the historic interior is not just illuminated, but awakened – as if the wooden structure itself begins to breathe.
The work explores the tension between the eternal and the ever-changing. It opens a space for contemplation, where creation is not something that once was – but something that happens now, in light and shadow, in wood and sound, in silence and wonder.
