Katharsis

2019, Katharsis, the Netherlands

The annual warehouse gathering in Amsterdam for experimental and groundbreaking electronic music enthusiasts. Katharsis refers to an ancient Greek philosophical concept, best defined as ‘purification of the soul through art’.

For this edition, the concept was guided by the following questions: How can we devise design that stands out from the other events? How can we make the experience as intense as possible? How can we break open the renowned industrial location, with its many pillars obstructing the space? By constructing a curved screen, the design encircled the front rows of the crowd—stretching the visuals to the very corners of their eyes.
