ISEA2019 Closing Performance and handover event
Fiat Lux is an interdisciplinary performance creating a narrative of another start of a light at the closing ceremony of ISEA2019 which sheds light upon the theme Lux Aeterna (Eternal Light). The paradoxical relation between light and darkness is shown through the corollary generation of shadow from the creation of light. After the solar eclipse with which the light is temporarily concealed, the resurrection of light begins.
