Encounter by Vendel en de Wolf brings the rare beauty of shooting stars to Amsterdam, where light pollution usually hides them. Inspired by the Perseid meteor shower, this light installation stretches across the Brouwersgracht and the Singel, with beams of light that mimic shooting stars. Each star has its own unique pattern, creating a cosmic moment in the urban night sky. A reminder that we’re on a little planet that is rushing through space, something eternal and mind-boggling bigger.
