ROSEGARDEN KOBLENZ


Festungsleuchten 2021,
Festung Ehrenbreitstein,
Koblenz

ROSEGARDEN Koblenz, in occasion of light art festival Festungsleuchten 2021 in the Festung Ehrenbreitstein.

ROSEGARDEN in Koblenz is the third appearance of the work ROSEGARDEN, projecting in this case a total of 1200 different rose names as a static texture into the yard of the so called Kurtine.

In this sum of name words, all kinds of word types and idioms can be found in the most diverse languages and language codes. In between we read names of places and regions from all over the world and personalities from art, politics or contemporary history of all epochs. All in all, this creates a vocabulary of its own, a world of its own for thinking and communicating, taking visitors into a associative landscape of words. The rosegarden becomes a symbol of the creation of the world through image and language.
