Celestial Choreography consisted of 48 images depicting the sky of Greece, with the clouds, stars and light performing a still but vivid dance. Prince Nikolaos explores the relationship of light – or lack thereof – with the sky. This series is as much a study in the ephemeral Greek skies as it is an effort to capture individual moments of dramatic composition. These abstract images evoke strong feelings and challenge what audiences usually envision when they think of the sky. His works display a vast array of colours.
The artist has always been fascinated by the playful nature of the architecture of the Round Tower, ever since he was a child. The ascension through the helical corridor, leading to the expansive and beautiful views over Copenhagen, make this an ideal space for Prince Nikolaos to exhibit his latest series of work. The fact that the Round Tower is an astronomical observatory has inspired Prince Nikolaos further, enabling him to title this series of works Celestial Choreography.
