Hire meGLOW 2013 - Clashlight
This year, the Philips Sport Association celebrates its centenary. That, coupled with this year’s theme ‘Urban Playground’, is a great excuse to pay tribute to the football stadium by including it in the light art route.
Clashlight visualises the identity of the Philips Stadium. When you think of football stadiums words like harmony, competition, power, winning, struggle and pride always come to mind. The typical sounds of the Philips Stadium are fused into a composition. We hear the cheering of supporters, the train racing by and the reverberations of a concert by Guus Meeuwis. The Philips Stadium is, moreover, the only Stadium that has its ‘roots’ in light. So, inevitably, lamps and light are the stars of this show. The result is a multidisciplinary experience that blows away the audience and shakes the complex to its foundations.
