I was artistic- and project lead for the complete TU/e contribution to Glow 2021, one of the main Glow areas in Eindhoven. Within the theme of Transformation by Light, we developed 8 innovative light artworks together with over 260 students, 7 research groups and institutes and the Glow organisation. In one week, the TU/e area attracted 300.000 visitors, who experienced the transformative power of light: how light influences wellbeing, how it influences our movements, how it changes our experience of the environment, how it is transformed into sustainable energy and more. Highlights include the Eye of Atlas project, that uniquely combines indoor lighting and public lighting into one artwork, and the Ballroom, a continuation of the ‘living’ light beams from Gibson (2018) focused on making people dance. See the pictures and movies for impressions of the artworks.
