The main medium of expression in the works of contemporary visual arts, presented at the Lighting Guerrilla international festival, is obviously the medium of light. The festival in this year, 2016, celebrates its tenth anniversary. A look over the shoulder into past decade reveals a great number of daring and often demanding lighting installations that illuminated the city and delighted its visitors and citizens.
It is a mere coincidence that the festival's program, in the year when Ljubljana boasts the title of the Green Capital of Europe, will also be marked by the same colour green. The main theme of this year's edition of the festival is namely NATURE. This is the reason we'll also be hosted in some city parks and the Botanical garden, in addition to other established locations. In addition to all that, we're beginning a multiannual project of a gradual creation and transformation of the Lighting park, situated next to the Gradaščica creek and created by Boštjan Drinovec. This year's program once again involves students from schools and faculties in Ljubljana with whom we develop new projects and, through a series of workshops, take care of their creative appetites.
Numerous artistic interventions presented here thematize and explore different meanings that nature has for the man in the modern society. Nature has been inspiring artists since time immemorial, but the contemporary ones are not satisfied with merely portraying it, but instead they use advanced technological tools to actively explore her mysteries. The members of the ČIPke collective, which is taking part of the festival for the first time this year, emphasize that „our conception of nature as a static, balanced and harmonic ecosystem that does not include the man or technology, is naive.“ Humans thus have a place in nature as much as is the other way around. Either as the godmother of creative inspiration, even mystical contemplation, or a venue for mysterious forces and process that raise scientificv and artistic curiosity, nature provides both artists and audiences a limitless quantity of material. The projects, shown at the festival, re-create the sublime beauty of nature, make space for playful substantial and formal arrangements and provide many starting points for various explorations and artistic experimentations.
