An evening of light, shadow, and stories in Bochum

WITHIN – Light Installation & Shadow Play transforms the community garden association at Bergmannsheil in Bochum on October 17, 2026, into a poetic open-air stage. The light art duo scheinzeitmenschen presents a tour where colored shadows, glowing tent shapes, and short audio pieces create an atmosphere between everyday observation and artistic transformation.

When the community garden becomes a stage

The event immerses visitors in an unusual event atmosphere: instead of traditional seating, attendees can expect a site-specific experience outdoors. Inspired by places like campgrounds, puppet theaters, community gardens, and planetariums, images emerge that recharge familiar things. This is what makes the event so exciting for culture enthusiasts who love light art, media art, and performative formats.

Shadow play with Bochum touch

The scheinzeitmenschen have been working for many years at the intersection of light and media art, material theater, and participatory installation. Their projects rely on strong visual stimuli, precise organization, and a clear target audience communication for an audience seeking sensual art formats. At WITHIN, shadow images intertwine with stories from people who have a relationship with the places, creating an event experience filled with intimacy, depth, and rhythm.

Bochum meets artistic curiosity

The venue at Hattinger Straße 112b is perfectly suited for this format: green, open, and located in the heart of Bochum's urban fabric. The light installation invites you to see the place anew and experience the audience's mood fluctuating between wonder, quiet contemplation, and discovery. Especially at dusk, the special effect of such installations unfolds as light and shadow animate the surroundings.

Good to know for your visit

WITHIN is designed as a free outdoor format, making it particularly accessible. Visitors can look forward to a late autumn evening filled with atmosphere, artistic impulses, and unusual perspectives on Bochum. Those seeking an event with cultural vibrancy will not find a standard event here, but a thoughtfully designed art and urban experience.

In conclusion: WITHIN promises an impressive evening of light art, sound, and shadow poetry. Those wanting to experience Bochum differently should discover this special open-air experience live on-site.
