THE LUMINOUS CITY
The poetic exhibit “The Luminous City” is produced every year in cooperation with the artist Helle Bull Sarning and children/youth from Viborg municipality. It has become a recurrent event arranged by Carte Blanche.
Every year the theatre invites a new group of children or young ones to make the attractive lanterns. The youngsters spend a week with Helle Bull Sarning, and together they create the many lanterns. The Luminous City has among other been displayed on the Hjultorv, in Mønsted Kalkgruber, in Viborg Byhave at the children’s opening of the European Cultural Capital Aarhus 2017 and latest at Viborg Dome in connection with the 500-years jubilee of the Reformation.
When the lanterns are put up, the regular street lightning stands down in favour of the special atmosphere created by the gauzy lantern-landscapes. And then it is time for everyone to enjoy the beautiful sight.
