As a sign of gratitude to the medical staff’s incredible efforts, we placed the artwork ‘Today I Love You’ at the @amsterdamumc location VUmc. May its luminous message be a reminder to take care of ourselves and of our loved ones, especially during uncertain times like these✨

3500 kilo afval hoort natuurlijk niet in onze prachtige grachten. 'Parabolic Lightcloud' van Amigo & Amigo werd deels gemaakt van gerecycled plastic. Heb jij het al gezien?
Dagelijks vissen we 3.500 kilo afval uit de grachten😲 Daarom vraagt @waterschapagv tijdens het @AmsterdamLight aandacht voor plastic in ons Amsterdamse water met het kunstwerk Parabolic Lightcloud, gemaakt van plastic flessen👏 Ga jij het licht zien?

How many people does it take to create a light artwork? Answer: it takes a village. 'Desire' is currently being installed, have you seen one of the artworks yet? Exactly one week until the lights go on!

De Dijk zong het al in 1990: "Ik kan het niet alleen!". Wij dus ook niet. Daarom zijn we op zoek naar enthousiaste vrijwilligers die ons willen komen versterken. Het leuke, grappige team verwelkomt je met open armen dus aarzel niet langer en meld je aan: https://t.co/Azf65MTRSC
