Lightlab

Everyday, free of charge, for the whole family

Capture the light with mirrors, dance with colored light, and use your hands, feet and entire body to make shadow art.
In the LightLab, the art is not in the composition of the physical objects on display, but rather in the use of light and shadows. The lab is designed to help you discover how light itself can be art, with the help of mirrors, lamps and your own body. Learn how to create shadows and reflections of various shapes and colors, enlarge and shrink them, and make them dance across the walls and ceiling.
