Final outcome.



I have chosen two photos to document my work, one in complete darkness where the lights become like drawings in space and another showing the lights in relation to the architecture.

Final conclusion, using the verticals in the space alongside colour to outline the architecture of the space.


Altering the perspective of the space, using perspective in order to munipulate and disorientate the viewer.

Continuing to experiment with light installations.











I started to investigate further into light installations. Trying out formulas such as only highlighting the verticals within the space and then only the horizontals. I Then tried to see what it would be like to highlight both together but felt this was a little too much. I investigated the idea of changing the space through the idea of perspective by spacing the glow sticks in a certain way and using colour. I then combined this with the outlining of certain aspects of the architecture.
I finally came to the conclusion simply to use the verticles of the space and to change the perspective of the space rather than simply outlining the architecture.

Continuing to use colour.


Here i have reversed the theory i used earlier to create perspective. Before i used the brighter colours at the front in order to give the sense of space by the darker colours enhancing the distance of the space. However in this case i have brought the darker colours forward in an experiment to see whether or not this would flatten the image. I like the effect it gives as it draws the viewer through the space to the brighter colours in the distance.

I was influenced by his work because of his simple use of light combined with forms and architecture.

Using colour to define the space.


I have used colour here to highlight the space further and to make the drawing i have made using light within the space more three dimensional.
