Time is Fire by Doris Schamp

Delmore Schwartz's song lyrics "Time is the school in which we learn, time is the fire in which we burn" served as inspiration for Doris Schamp's installation "Time is fire".

Eight neon green drip candle columns containing of 250 single candles, visualize various processes of time. The candles symbolize birth, life and death. Additional purple lines (live paths) are building a connection between the audience, the watches and the store area stretching from the presentation space to the inner area of the Rado Store.

"Time is the fire" finalizes the exhibition circle at Rado Store Vienna, which was presented this year. The most innovative and visionary project will be awarded with the Rado Young Design Prize 2011. The winner will have the opportunity to present its project at Rado Store Vienna within the scope of Vienna Design Week 2011.
