In Conversation with SPARK artist and creator, Daan Roosegaarde

Inspired by the ephemeral and organic light of fireflies, and a desire to update the celebratory ritual of fireworks, SPARK is an artwork created by Daan Roosegaarde of Dutch social design lab, Studio Roosegaarde.

SPARK by Daan Roosegaarde has been exhibited in Bilbao, Aix-en-Provence, Madrid, Auckland and London – and is coming to Fed Square as part of RISING this year.

SPARK by Daan Roosegaarde will gently illuminate the night sky, as visitors are encouraged to pass through the space in quiet contemplation of the wondrous organic and luminescent forms that hover above, moving with the wind.

In this special In Conversation event, artist Daan Roosegaarde will be joined by Melbourne Arts Precinct CEO Katrina Sedgwick OAM and RISING Co-Artistic Director and Co-CEO Hannah Fox.
