Summer Solstice, The day of the almost infinite light (and colour)

Summer Solstice
Sunrise on June 21 2022. View from Casa Sasso artist residency.

During the day with the almost infinite light, June 21 – the longest day of the year, we are staying at Sasso. We invited our fellow artists from the house to celebrate the light. Because when we celebrate light we also celebrate colour, we prepared a special colour meditation.

It was such a special and beautiful experience. We all saw different choreographies of colours, shapes and movements. The colours clouded, pulsated, crowded around each other or just seemed to evaporate into an infinite distance.

The colour meditation that we chose for this day is based on a well-known European visual meditation and consists of the colours blue and red in a graphic pattern.

Uta and I (Barbara) have continued with the meditation and are doing it almost daily, also extending the time. So not only does the light of the longest days shine on our time in Sasso, but also the light of this colour meditation colours our time here.

But for next week we have a different plan. That is also based on light, but more fiery that goes together with the darkest dark.

Until then!
