Ascent is a five-meter-high spiral installation of mist and light<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

In July 2025, artist Karolina Halatek<\/a> presented Ascent in Qingdao<\/a> as part of Lanc\u00f4me\u2019s Voyage of the Rose program. The five-meter-high installation<\/a> is composed of a spiral of mist and light<\/a>, creating an immersive, site-specific environment.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The work investigates the interplay of light and atmosphere through a spatial structure that integrates optical and environmental effects. Mist and illumination combine to form shifting visual conditions, placing visitors within an altered perceptual field. The installation references microscopic observations, electromagnetic wave behavior, and atmospheric dynamics, while also addressing themes of transformation and continuity.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Halatek is a Polish visual artist<\/a> whose practice centers on large-scale light installations and immersive environments. Her projects frequently involve collaborations with scientists and engineers to achieve technically complex results. Her work has been presented internationally across Europe, the USA, the Middle East, and Asia.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ascent was created and produced in collaboration with Somexing Artistic Agency for Lanc\u00f4me\u2019s Voyage of the Rose, an initiative that commissioned four international artists to interpret the brand\u2019s<\/a> Absolue Rose emblem. Each installation combined art, science, and sustainable design within temporary spaces across China. The series included: Garden of Everything by Juju Wang in Wuhan (April), Ascent by Karolina Halatek in Qingdao (July), Birth of an Icon by Casey Curran in Chengdu (August), and A Gift from Eternal Rose by Daigo Daikoku in Shenzhen (August).<\/p>\n
