Lighting Project

Updated: May 25, 2023

This light box is meticulously crafted using wood, acrylic, three LED light bulbs, and three light sockets for connecting the lights. Each light bulb emits a distinct color, namely red, green, and blue. As a result, when the light shines and creates a shadow, the display encompasses the entire spectrum of rainbow colors.


Symbolizing the connection to one's inner self, this fixture offers an interactive experience for viewers. By placing their hands into the designated openings on the sides of the box, they witness the shadow of their hand in varying hues. The proximity of the hand to the surface of the box determines the clarity of the shadow image. This representation conveys that one's identity is not a singular entity, but rather a harmonious amalgamation of fundamental human emotions, including joy, sadness, disgust, fear, and anger, which exist universally. When the observer moves their hand within the box, the different colors of light intermingle and diffract, casting shadows that represent distinct emotions. However, these emotions remain interconnected and together they form a complex and emotionally rich sense of self.
