Insight

Art in the museum

Tobias Post shows digital light art in museum and industrial spaces – at the Museum Westfälische Salzwelten, the Museum Wendener Hütte, the Deutsches Elektrizitätsmuseum in Recklinghausen and the compressor hall of the Kokerei Hansa in Dortmund. Several works start from the place: from the foldings of K. G. Schmidt, from the historic compressors, from the theme of a permanent exhibition. Many respond to the audience in real time via 3D sensors.

The German Museum of Electricity

At a Christmas event at the Deutsches Elektrizitätsmuseum, Tobias Post showed BRUCHKANTE KONKRET: a work on the edge of Concrete Art that takes up the theme of electricity in the substation in graphic form.

The theme comes from the museum

On 17 October 2026, at the Ferromone family festival of the Westfälische Salzwelten: 23 works, nine of them crystal works on the theme of the permanent exhibition “Das weiße Wunder” – and several hundred guests in the midst of it all.

Farbexplosion

One evening at the courtyard festival, several hundred guests: nine of the 23 works took up the theme of the permanent exhibition – crystals that responded to the movement of the guests.

Adern

Salt lies in the ground in deposits and bands – “Adern” translates this into crystal bands through which pulses run. Developed from the theme of the Salzwelten.

Wismut

The Salzwelten show crystal lattices under salt microscopes; “Wismut” makes the rule by which a lattice grows visible as a staircase – with oxide colours that change with the viewing angle.

A possible exhibition

Visualisations of fictional spaces – not realised projects. They show how existing works could stand in a museum space and do not represent a collaboration with any particular museum.

Minimal Ring – Museum

Visualisation

Eleven works from the Minimal Ring series in an exhibition hall with free-standing walls, a cabinet and a panorama – an exhibition to walk around and through.

Applications made for the museum

Besides exhibitions, playable simulations can make a theme of the house tangible – in the browser, at a table for several people or as a large projection.
