The overwhelming success and responses garnered by Katja`s photo exhibition „Ladyflash“ underlined the importance of making the energy and power of today’s women visible and accessible.
This was the incentive for „Electric Lights“, her next photo project.  It is meant to shine a spotlight on women in electronic music, showcasing their passion, experiences and unique artistic perspectives coming from the person involvement of Katja Ruge and Thomas Venker as DJ`s, journalist, photographer and most of all dancers in this particular field.  Especially in electronic music we see a huge revolution happening and finally the world is realizing how many exceptional female artists are present.  More than ever the time has come to showcase empowered women, to inspire the new generations to work in the fields of art, music, fashion, graphics and more to empower themselves.

The first Electric Lights Night will happen at Planetarium Hamburg with the technical support by Uebel & Gefährlich.
