Fényinstallációk és performanszok a föld alatt – Kőbánya Underground fesztivál MOME-kötődésű alkotói
Fényinstallációk, audiovizuális kísérletek és performanszok is bemutatkoztak a Kőbánya Underground idei kiadásán. Az esemény a hely sajátos atmoszférájára építve teremtett kapcsolatot az ipari örökség és a kortárs kultúra között a város alatt húzódó egykori bánya több mint 30 kilométeres pincerendszerében. A harmadik éve futó esemény többnapos fesztivál formájában tért vissza, melyet az Irregulari alkotói kollektíva több egyetem – köztük a MOME – szakmai közreműködésével szervezett. A szervezők mellett a kiállításon is számos mostani és egykori MOME-hallgató működött közre, erről szól összefoglalónk.
