150,000 motorized mirrors
reflect sunlight at the concentrated solar plant, located in the Mojave Desert, Ivanpah in the U.S. The focused sunbeams of
this area can reach temperatures of up to 1,000 degrees, attracting insects that perish in the intense heat. The manifestation
of Kathrin Stumreich’s investigation of this occurrence is a central piece in her latest exhibition at discotec titeled; Mid-air
collision.
During her on-site visit, she amassed 10
terabytes of picture and video content, capturing observations of thermal activity, the color of the sky, and animal behavior.
The interaction between the natural environment and the infrastructure of renewable energy sources is central to her multimedia
installation.
