In participation with a week long artist-in-residency series, Palm Noir, Kas Infinite created a site specific light sculpture on property at Ace Hotel & Swim Club.
Palm Noir connects the Danish art scene with the high desert in Palm Springs. Three Danish and three American artists were brought together to develop their practices and sharing skill sets and know-how across artistic fields. To gain insight and inspiration for their local artwork production, the artists were introduced to innovative platforms; met with the heads of several creative initiatives and visited relevant cultural sites throughout Los Angeles, Palm Springs and the surrounding Californian desert from the 18th to the 28th of July, 2019.
The culmination of this interdisciplinary mini-residency was a one-day exhibition at the Ace Hotel & Swim Club located in Palm Springs. Some of the evening’s highlights included site-specific works and a live musical performance by composer and multi-instrumentalist Anomie Belle.
The program for this creative initiative was developed in collaboration between Nordic LA, Art Hub Copenhagen and Ace Hotel & Swim Club.
