AUTHOR’S NOTE The Gdynia Gate is a light installation that, via its form, refers to triumphal arcs and city gates — constructions that manifested strength, brought communities together and guarded the citizens. Historically, in times of war, uncertainty and autocratic rule, architecture would shift to easily understandable and unambiguous classical forms. A stone arch — one of the most substantial structures found in architecture — holds a magnitude of connotations and interpretations. In this context the light arc is an oxymoron — a communal notion that all of us endorse as a way of searching for meaning and certainty in an uncertain world.
