i Light Marina Bay 2017

Honoured to be invited to the 5th edition of i Light Marina Bay Preview this year and get to preview some of the 20 sustainable light art installations which are based on the theme – “Light & Nature”. This year theme aims to invite the public to consider the relationship of lights with nature and the city.

Some installation which caught my eyes includes:
Horizontal Interference by Katarzyna Malejka & Joachim Slugocki from Poland
I actually got a pre-preview of this simple installation formed by a colorful cord connecting a few trees while I’m was Pokemon hunting at MBS. Love that this simple, ingenious illumination is able to merge the natural and constructed elements, and how it can create a poetic and powerful image when the wind make it moves, not to mention it’s spectacularly beautiful at nightfall!
