Oumua

Light & Sound Installation. A three-dimensional object around and below which we can transit. Its 8 arms, 6 meters long each hold 130 meters of led strips that display a cycle specifically created for the piece. A musical piece was composed for the piece on the occasion of its premiere at Lumo Festival, Finland, and together they create a beautiful space of contemplation. The overall dimensions of the installation are 6 meters high x 10 meters diameter.

The installation was named after the first known interstellar object to pass through the Solar System (1I/2017 U1), "and reflects the way this object is like a scout or messenger sent from the distant past to reach out to us".

The object was pimped up in 2022, including now several extra meters of led strips with diffusers that complete the diamond shape. The object has become brighter and smoother!
