Tomas Saraceno 'Poetic Cosmos'.

An Argentinian artist who I came across in my research. I thought this was amazing the way that he used iridescent foil and blew it up with heat which created all these beautiful colours. An interesting way to use heat and light!

Cell Lighting 'Lighting Kaleidoscope'

Again while researching my I came across Cell Lighting. This 'Lighting Kaleidoscope' uses lighting as an interactive source encouraging activity within children while at the same time creating beautiful imagery that could constantly change.

These were just two people I came across while researching but while I am researching it is making me realise how much light can impact in everyday life. In terms of colour, it can add so much to an evironment and change it completely. Light can be something we take for granted, but the more reseach I am doing and the more photos I am taking it is becoming apparent how much we need light, how much it can influence moods and spaces and even though it is something that features in our everyday lives, it is constantly changing and adapting. It can also be very beautiful purely as it is when manipulated and viewed differently to how we see it day-to-day.
