Exhibition series in the dark towers of Berlin
Boris Acket creates installations in an old industrial tower that simulate natural phenomena: Huge storms and raging seas are brought to life, we hear the sound of the wind but see 49 servomotors moving in space.

The Dark Rooms Vertical with Boris Acket
We are all influenced by nature. Every day. Even our minds depend on it. But nature is beginning to disappear from our world bit by bit. Concrete is taking its place and displays are creating a longing for a substitute nature:
"The perfect sunset" or "a sparkling sunbeam hitting the surface of the water."
Boris Acket exposes on 6 dark floors how quickly we settle for an illusion of nature.
In his works, he reveals our entire ambivalence towards nature: longing, fascination, power, but also powerlessness.
The exhibition is a journey around the world!
The works were created all over the world: Mexico City, Sydney, New York, Milan, Madrid, Amsterdam and Zurich.
For the first time, Boris Acket is showing all the installations at a single location in Berlin.
In collaboration with 12 international artists, sound and light installations have been created in the 120-year-old tower, creating their own weather system. The artworks react to each other. No two installations are ever the same.
.
Visitors climb six floors high above Berlin and discover the engaging light and sound installations in each room.
All guests enter the exhibition through a black lock. This darkness serves an important purpose: it cleanses our senses of chaotic everyday impressions.
Stay as long as you like!
- Each guest receives a yoga mat. This allows everyone to find their own place among the hypnotic works.
- The estimated length of stay is approx. 2 hours ... or longer.
The location is top secret and visitors will only be informed 48 hours before their visit.
