Research wizards have speculated that there is another, much speedier type of light which allows the slower light to<br \/>\nbe seen, but since this moves too fast to see they have been unable to find a use for it. <\/p>\n<p>When light encounters a strong magical field it loses all sense of urgency.  It slows right down.  And on the<br \/>\nDiscworld the magic was embarrassingly strong, which meant that the soft yellow light of dawn flowed over the sleeping landscape like the caress of a gentle lover or, as some would have it, like golden syrup. <\/p>\n<p>Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong.  No matter how fast light travels it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it. <\/p>\n<p>Terry Pratchett<\/p>\n<p>The Rapla County Centre for Contemporary Art finalises its 10th anniversary programme with an international exhibition of glass &amp; light objects titled Slow Light. A \u201cliving\u201d display where luminous objects move in the dark space, casting shadows, reflections and surreal images. Others stay still, with only a pulsating inner luminescence revealing their hidden facets. Light and sound connect the pieces into a unified, abstract spectacle, where every work plays a role.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition offers an exciting gamut of ideas and techniques. Participating artists &#8211; celebrated internationally and locally &#8211; each have developed a unique vision and handwriting. <\/p>\n<p>The year 2020, with its unexpected developments, has made us contemplate our environment and humanity from new angles. The works, most of which were created specially for the occasion, display both humour and wistfulness, but also deeper perceptions and reflections.<\/p>\n<p>Participants:<\/p>\n<p>Sofi Ar\u0161as, Piret Ellamaa, Merle Kannus, Erki Kannus, Kati Kerstna, Kai Kiudsoo-V\u00e4rv , Eve Koha, Kai Koppel, Marilin Kristjuhan, Kairi Orgusaar, Aleksandra Pavlenkova, Rait Pr\u00e4\u00e4ts, Birgit P\u00e4hlapuu, Kateriin Rikken, Maret Sarapu, Eili Soon , Aivar T\u00f5nso, Kristiina Uslar (Estonia), Torsten R\u00f6tzsch, Simone Fezer (Germany), Marta Gibiete (Latvia). <\/p>\n<p>Curator: Kairi Orgusaar.<\/p>\n<p>Exhibition, lighting and graphic design: Kati Kerstna.<\/p>\n<p>Sound composition: Aivar T\u00f5nso.<\/p>\n<p>Opening Nov. 20.at18.00<br \/>\nThe Rapla County Centre for Contemporary Art, Tallinna mnt. 3b, Rapla.<br \/>\nOpen Nov. 21\u2013 Dec. 13, Tue-Sun 15.00 \u2013 18.00.<br \/>\nClosed on Mondays.<\/p>\n<p>Sponsored by:<\/p>\n<p>Cultural Endowment of Estonia, CEE Rapla County expert group, Rapla Parish, Rapla County Municipalities\u2019 Development Foundation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Rapla County Centre for Contemporary Art presents: SLOW LIGHT An exhibition of glass &amp; light objects with spatial sound and moving lighting design https:\/\/kultuur.err.ee\/1162396\/raplamaa-kaasaegse-kunsti-keskuses-uuritakse-klaasikunstnike-uudisloomingut https:\/\/www.ohtuleht.ee\/1018451\/galerii-raplas-avati-klaasist-valgusobjektide-naitus?fbclid=IwAR0XHHCV9WDpTAtVsWEDJS-IHSDSdiq2YH73QAUMKG5QZfutmA-Ey1vVYKU Light travels slowly on the Disc and is slightly heavy, with a tendency to pile up against high mountain ranges.
