Luzinterruptus, an anonymous artistic group, who carries out urban interventions in public spaces, created the Mutant Weeds installation, to protest the light pollution caused by the new high power pharmacy signs in Madrid. To accomplish this mission, they acquired fluorescent sticks, which they gave the form of blades of grass and placed them on the pavement, converting the reflections into small radioactive fields that produced a curious anticipation in the many citizens who walked the streets at those hours.
Luzinterruptus: ”Without wanting to play down such a serious subject, but trying to approach it with a sense of humor, which never hurts, we carried out our installation Mutant Weeds in which we recreated a not-too-distant future, in which a new and hardy species of photosensitive plant, grows in the asphalt around the pharmacies, nourished by the photosynthesis of its powerful “low” light.”
