Installation
Experience a video work about the future at Roskilde Libraries
Will you keep the lighthouse bright? is part of the solo exhibition with the Romanian artist collective Apparatus 22. Over the summer of 2025, Civis Bloomcraft is presented in its 3rd and final act. It looks at possible future scenarios for Roskilde and invites us to rethink the city’s identity and potential through Suprainfinit – a utopian universe where hope is cultivated as an important tool in critical thinking.
Will you keep the lighthouse bright? is a video installation shown at Roskilde Libraries. The video work explores and practices utopian thinking. If we look beyond political unrest and everyday personal struggles, what new futures become visible? Answer the installation’s questionnaire and find the answer.

What does CIVIS BLOOMCRAFT feel like in its unfolding?
“Like an intoxicating fantasy ~ a sensuous reality ~ a caring composition of works born from utopian hearts. As an adventurous ~ alluring ~ fearless joint attempt by us and the museum to reach out into the city, connect with communities that may not care if this is art or something else, listen to the whispers of Roskilde, open conversations and challenge perspectives on future, hope, democracy, generosity, empathy, love, happiness. This could be quite musical, mind-bending, bold, dreamy, fluid, subtle, queer, circuitous, strange and imperfect – glowing in the dark.
Hopefully touching. And uplifting.”
