The Wave returns to Ofelia Plads

 

The annual Copenhagen Light Festival opens officially on Saturday 1 February with 37 major installations that have been set up on squares and streets and across the facades of buildings around the city.

The Wave - a popular light installation by the art collective Vertigo - has returned to Ofelia Plads and was already attracting a crowd this evening.

It's a series of triangular frames that run down the pier on the north side of the national theatre to form a tunnel 80 metres long. Richly-coloured light pulsates or ripples down the length and, as people move through the tunnel, they are surrounded by a mesmerising sound track with five choral works composed by Louise Alenius and performed by singers from the Opera House.


the festival continues at outdoor venues around the city until 23 February 2020
