Terminal for Tirana / Apparat Studio + Karolina Halatek

The permanent installation Terminal in Tirana is an immersive light sculpture by contemporary artist Karolina Halatek in the public space of Tirana. Karolina Halatek’s project Terminal for Tirana curated by Adela Demetja and implemented by Tirana Art Lab - Center for Contemporary Art has been selected as one of the eight winning artworks by the international jury for the competition “Art in Public Spaces 2022” launched and financed by the Ministry of Economy, Culture and Innovation of Albania. This site-specific installation draws inspiration from the profound recollections of patients experiencing near-death experiences (NDEs), creating thus a space where art, spirituality, and science intersect. Terminal for Tirana offers a contemplative space where visitors can experience a sense of euphoria, peace, and the feeling of transcending physical boundaries.
