Solo show at Kunstpalais, Erlangen Germany
15.3.2019-10.7.2019
"Light, movement, and sound: In her room-spanning, performative installations, the artist translates the nocturnal design of our cities into aesthetic spaces of experience. Based on the term ‘Architecture of the Night,’ coined by US-architect Raymond Hood in 1930, Rodeh develops her artistic approach to urban illumination. This approach is grounded both on a careful examination of technical components as well as in-depth cultural-historic research on the use of artificial light." —Malte Kröger
