With the spatial installation "lichtkunst kunstlicht" on the symbolic value of artificial light, the light sculptor Franz Betz laid the foundations for his artistic work in 1989. The invention of the light alphabet "alphabetz" ten years later, the sculpture construction kit "f-io" and the "lichtbloobs" are examples of his strong conceptual and transdisciplinary approach.
In his studio "trafolab", he transforms an old transformer station into a light art laboratory and develops new, participatory light art projects there - such as the open light festival "ihme vision", the light installation "schloss de light" and the swarm art project "kleefeld leuchtet".
In his latest works, Franz Betz deals with artificial and emotional intelligence and develops his own neural networks and expansive installations.
