A man in a suit shoulders a streetlight, a battery in hand. At sunset, he lights the lamp and walks into the blue hour. When the weight grows heavy, he halts, sets the lamp upright, and rests beneath its glow, a fleeting beacon in the deepening darkness. A man in a suit shoulders a streetlight, a battery in hand.

Jan Philip Scheibe (*72, D) creates installations and performances in urban spaces and natural landscapes, often using light. His work explores humanity's influence on nature and its romanticization. Through site-specific interventions with unconventional materials, he reveals hidden aspects of spaces, transforming them into new, unseen environments both physically and conceptually.
