‘Reflecting Bodies’ by @simonesmelt invites to witness an interplay of light, material and reflection. A second iteration of this artwork will be presented at the exhibition OF NOW at @monopolberlin. The light reflected on the polished sharp and geometrical surfaces of the aluminum volumes, creates fluid shatterings and shapes, diffusing the rays of light in multiple directions. The interplay of reflection and shadow becomes an ever-shifting landscape of illumination. ‘Reflecting Bodies’ is a study of material, shape, volume, light and the interplay between these four elements. The artwork features a spatial sound composition by @enequist_ OF NOW will open its doors next Wednesday, on May 1st. Link in bio for more info and tickets.

Two weeks ago, we (@festamsterdam and @kvadrattextiles ) hosted a party to celebrate colour 🩵💜🤎 We invited as many colourful people as we know, and what a night it was! We kicked things off with two inspiring talks by @riveroshan and @jochemrotteveel , and ended with a full-on club night with @enequist_ behind the decks. In between, there was beautiful food, amazing drinks and cocktails, and the best conversations. Special thanks to @drinkstelz , @nelemanwines , @orginicsgin , and massimo for the incredible food and drinks, @titusevers for the soundsystem and laser to create an amazing clubnight, and of course to @nienkefris.studio for capturing the vibe so perfectly taken in Kvadrat by @simonesmelt

The Yard, Voodoo Village Festival — A tactile exploration between material, shape and the materiality of light. Creative collaboration between @lumus.instruments and @simonesmelt for @voodoovillagefestival As beams of light meet the mirrored surface, they bend, diffuse, and burst into prismatic fragments, forming a living architecture of light and reflection. Twenty-six suspended aluminum totems reflecting and refracting light into fractured geometries — the third iteration of Reflecting Bodies This project came to life through an intuitive and effortless collaboration between my dear friend @juliusoosting , @lumus.instruments and myself — a dialogue between form and light. It’s the result of trust, play and a shared curiosity for the tactile materiality of light.

The Yard, Voodoo Village 2025 We set out to create a space that combines scale with a feeling of weightlessness; floating and blending in the environment. At its core stand the sculptural totems of Simone Smelt, the third iteration of her Reflecting Bodies series. These suspended sculptures formed the epicenter of the scenography: twenty-six aluminum volumes, sharp and polished, reflecting light into fractured forms. Light interacting with the polished geometrical surfaces of the sculpture create fluid fragments and shapes, diffusing the rays in multiple directions. The light refracts into prismatic bursts — scattering into fine rays of color. With this iteration we took the work into motion, making the sculptures kinetic. Two rotating trusses carried the sculptures through space, while a custom laser-tracking system by Pavel Zmunchila added another layer of animation and synchronicity. Many thanks to everyone who helped us to get this done in such short notice <3 Client - Voodoo Village Installation by Simone Smelt (@simonesmelt) and Lumus Instruments Laser content by Pavel Zmunchila (@pavelzmunchila) Anton Kochnev (@antonkochnev_ ), software @touchdesigner Laser and LED operated by Daniel Steenhoff (@daniel.steenhoff) Light operated by Pepijn de Jong (@pepdejong) Technical production by Bart de Clene Executed by Phlippo Productions Motion by Wicreations Lasers by Laser XL BE Crew @juliusoosting @timo_lejeune @madeliefkok @komposittt @nlrlivia @casaerts @pepdejong @daniel.steenhoff @enequist_ @brianruijter @titusevers by @simonesmelt
