Amsterdam Light Festival was a canal cruise organisers' initiative and artworks were planned to be best seen from the boats. Today, I think walking or biking is the better option to see them, even though the cruise is very much fun in its own right. An exception to the rule this year was Xinyi Wang's Whale Fall; the boat gets you way closer than feet. The artwork profits of the close range examination, revealing its scale and dimensions, and the slow movement of the boat adds to its subtle dynamics.
