In the German city of Brunswick, an extraordinary transformation occurs under the night sky at Kiryat Tiron Park. As part of the Lichtparcours 2024 festival, a collective of dedicated artists presents a thought-provoking installation titled “(Plastic) Full Moon” is swinging overhead thanks to Luz Interruptus.
A multicolored luminescence of plastic waste afloat in the galaxy, like a new moon no one wants to view.

This vision, conceived in 2019, finally materialized in June thanks to the support of the Litchparcours festival jury and the collective efforts of the artists and the community. The installation symbolizes a not-so-distant future where our consumer culture and environmental neglect result in a moon composed of plastic debris.
The installation process itself was monumental, involving thousands of pieces of recycled plastic donated by the community. Volunteers meticulously sewed together remnants of bottles, bags, toys, and containers, creating a vast spherical structure held aloft by a massive construction crane. An integral part of the artwork, the crane suspends the sphere over the serene waters of the park’s lake, creating a striking reflection that captivates onlookers every evening from 7 pm to 1 am.

The artists, hailing from various parts of the world, have long been dedicated to addressing environmental issues through their work. Together, they created a piece that highlights the dire state of our planet and showcases the power of community action and artistic collaboration. The (Plastic) Full Moon is more than an artwork; it is a beacon of change. Or is it?
As you stand beneath this luminescent orb, reflecting on the calm waters of Kiryat Tiron Park, you made find that you are not just an observer but a participant in the dialogue it sparks. The (Plastic) Full Moon shines until early October.
