Sound and light installation

The artist group Seafoam Palace transforms the Humboldthain Flak Tower into a cosmic fragment in their narrative sound and light installation "Roadside Picnic."




Seafoam Palace presents »Roadside Picnic«



In an atmospheric tour, visitors explore an unreal realm of history and fantasy, where the projected world has become somewhat unhinged.


A planet that has left its solar system glides aimlessly and silently through dark space. In the otherworldly world of its landscapes, inspired by the "Zone" in Andrei Tarkovsky's film Stalker, other natural laws apply: Concrete blocks hang on gossamer threads, water flows upwards, memories and desires take shape. Visitors are invited to explore this fictional world for themselves.


In collaboration with Berliner Unterwelten e.V., Seafoam Palace presents its narrative sound and light installation in one of Berlin's most impressive buildings.


Seafoam Palace is an artist group from Detroit, USA, that has been organizing site-specific events, art exhibitions, and scavenger hunts in underground and abandoned spaces for over 20 years. Their planetary series "Falling Sideways" has also been performed at the Wieliczka Salt Mines (Poland), Tunisia, Estonia, and various locations in the USA.
