Downtown, Eindhoven

Imagine walking through pitch-black darkness. There are other people around you, but you can’t see them. And yet, you know they’re there. How? Through their warmth. Every living being emits heat. It’s something we all share. And the colder the world around us becomes, the more we can benefit from each other’s warmth. Are you ready to turn your energy into a shared source of light and heat?

You make GLOW. And with this work, we mean that quite literally. As a visitor, you are inseparably connected to NOVA. As you enter the installation, your body heat is transformed into a hotspot. The more people gather, the larger and more powerful the hotspot becomes.

With NOVA, Team IGNITE makes visible the invisible energy we carry with us, everywhere we go. And as you join forces with strangers to create one powerful hotspot, you realise that we have much more in common than we sometimes think.
