CHU - Liquid States, 2023
CHU is an audiovisual land art projection-mapping-show.
Created for Asia's highest land-art exhibition: Saladakh. The 8 min. long Show was performed twice.
On a rock structure, next to the city of Leh and in the remote area of Suru Valley.
„Light particles hitting metamorphic rocks, granite and lichen. Fluid shapes, flickers and waves flow over the harsh solid surface. (Internationally acclaimed) German light artist Philipp Frank's work titled 'Liquid States' invites us into an unknown and unseen world.
His waves of light cover the Himalayan landscape like a comfortable liquid blanket. The waves resemble water. Something elusive in this 50 million-year-old mountainous superstructure, just as Philipp's artwork itself. With this captivating artwork, Philip reflects on the increasing water scarcity and our specie's universal dependence on it in a high altitude realm."

Rock Lights, 2017-today
"Rock Lights" is an ongoing series of temporary video installations on stone formations.
When the light is right, for a couple of minutes at dusk.
The magic unfolds in transcendental poetic moments.
Nature and technology melt into a new layer of reality.
What is real becomes virtual and the virtual becomes real.
Real virtuality.
The recordings remaining the only relicts of those ephemeral interventions.
