PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Different colored light source blending into one is a concept that is commonly known but not usually experienced in our daily life. In this project I offset two light sources with different color that would blend into one that is hanging in an environment. By standing underneath and interacting with the light source, the cast shadow would then change into a multicolored shadow to create an exprerience of touch, but not touched.
Students are challenged to create a 3D study on how light can define a tactile sensation or tangeable experience as an illuminated visual experience. The work need not be an interactive experience of touching materials, but rather a visible interpretation of the sensation encountered. Can you touch with your eyes?
I was inspired by the abstract quality of lights. Lights, like paint, could be mixed into different colors. However, the end result is completly different.
