UTC Oxfordshire: projected light

The previous session with UTC Oxfordshire students was all about form and structure. In contrast, last week's was based on light.

As the day progressed their ideas got more experimental, using lenses and reflections.
We used a digital projector as the light source and theatrical ‘haze’ to accentuate the light rays, generating some interesting and gorgeous effects.

Afterwards was another evening session with GWP residents. Along the same lines, but different approaches, and no smoke machine this time (to avoid fire alarms!).

I’d quite like to use light some way in the public artwork, and it’s good to try images that work with natural and artificial light, with lenses, and illuminating curved surfaces.
