Levitaatio 06

The student association of industrial design, Tomu ry, from the University of Lapland arranges international snow sculpting competition in Levi 27- 29.01.2006. The event gathers art students together to spend a relaxing weekend with snow sculpting and other winter fun. 

Ten competing teams will be chosen by the proposal sent in advance. Teams consist of one to five competitors who will get one 2x2x2m cube to sculpt from. Teams will have 7 hours on Saturday to sculpt their view of this year’s theme “360º” with their own tools. Water can be used, however using colors is not allowed. Sculptures will be located right in the centre of Levi, near Lapland Hotels Sirkantähti and Hotel Levitunturi. After seven hours of intensive sculpting, jury of professional designers and artists will choose top three to be rewarded with great prices.

Sign in to the competition by sending your proposal by email or to the address below by 9.1.2006. Proposal should be size A4 and contain picture of the sculpture and some written explanations. On the down right corner, mark four numbered code and attach an envelope addressed with that very same code, and include Team name, participants’ names and an address to which further information can be sent.

Participation fee for the whole team is 75 €. It includes accommodation and meals in Hotel Sirkantähti or Hotel Levitunturi.

Instead of competing you can also come to hang around and ski downhill or just to have a fun weekend in the beautiful landscapes of Levi in reasonable price. But we only can take a limited amount of ”hangarounds” to join us! So be quick! Sign in straight to the hotels.
