Works were mainly focused on the performative, visual and intermedia art in public spaces. The main lecturer of the workshop was Tomas Moravek (Institute of Light Design Prague), experienced lighting designer, who works in the Prague area – mainly in theater and dance performances. Participants thus had a unique opportunity to look at working with light slightly differently and try to combine elements of theater and contemporary art.
