AS Solar supports art project |
 AS Solar supports Hanoverian artist Joy Lehmann’s new project as a sponsor in order to raise awareness towards environmental protection and global warming. From May 5th – September 27th, 2009 artificial islands, symbolizing the five continents, are floating on the Maschteich in Hannover. By contrasting the seeming nature idyll on the islands with 12 global hotspots of climate hazards, symbolized through warning lights, the artist wants to draw attention to the human influence on our planet. Keeping this in mind AS Solar provides the project with three solar modules, a battery and cables in order to give the spectator the opportunity to experience the piece of art in a completely different way at night. The lit warning lights stand for the expected climate catastrophes of the 21st century like drought and flooding. By the island’s continuing overgrowth the artist also shows the healing powers of our planet and thus, does not want his art to be seen as a purely negative sign towards the future.
