GLOW Eindhoven 2010 featured “Construction for Erosion”, a light artwork by Bart Prinsen in Eindhoven.
“Construction for Erosion” consists of a metal silo with fine sand flowing through a narrow slit. The sand forms a thin curtain on which a stripe of light is projected. Due to the reflection of light on the rippling water and the uneven flow of sand, the projection appears as a wavering, continuously moving line.

Bart Prinsen is fascinated by the tension between chaos and order, which is reflected in his multimedia installations using elements such as sand, smoke, light, and water. In the old textile factory of Schellens, he presents two new works.
