Sensational Light Project in Vancouver: Fire with Fire

Fire with Fire is a remarkable art project from Isabelle Hayeur put to practice in Downtown Eastside, Vancouver. What you see in the photos and video below is actually a site-specific video installation, created with the help of video projectors and 3 blu-ray players. Here is more information from the artist: “In 1886, soon after the city was incorporated, the Great Vancouver Fire swept down on the neighborhood’s and razed almost all of it to the ground. The video installation Fire with Fire recalls this troubled period of Vancouver’s history. It also alludes to the neighborhood present conditions by  reminding us that many lives have been consumed there, worn down by years of homelessness, drug use, street prostitution, and violence.” Be sure to check out the video at the end of the post for a general idea. What we find odd is the fact that people walk by, notice the fire, yet they continue untroubled. Part of the typical modern city attitude, we figured.- via w ooh ome
