LUMEN is a cutting-edge video art and projection festival featuring site-specific video installations, 3D-video technology, sound-based performances, and art interventions by artists around the globe. Featuring work by emerging Staten Island artists, as well as established video, new media, projection, and animation artists from New York City and beyond, LUMEN will highlight a diversity of artists at the forefront of their media in an industrial landscape on Staten Island’s waterfront.
There will be performances by Grace Exhibition Space from 6pm-8pm, and sound and video performances by HZ Collective from 8pm-10pm. A sponsored tasting by Brooklyn Brewery is from 9pm-11pm, featuring sound performance by Jennida Chase.
Admission is free. Atlantic Salt is located at 561 Richmond Terrace, a 15 minute walk, or 10 minute ride from the free Staten Island ferry. Artist-guided walks from the ferry will begin at 4pm from the SI Ferry Terminal, so you don’t have to walk alone.
