A Blue Mirage in the City of Light
Singapore enjoys the benefit of an intense and bright light. At night, illuminations reveal the Metropolis to be theatre-like.
As such, the spaces metamorphose; people become the protagonists; the city,
the décor; and light, the enhancer.The Marina Bay Light Festival creates an outdoor celebration in an
urban context of iconic buildings and landmarks, enveloped by a warm,
gold tint. Interpreting the creative nature of light, this installation
pays respect to its environment while adopting it as an asset. Day and night, a prismatic effect mirrors
cityscapes and the lights, encouraging public participation at any time.In order to achieve a kinetic effect, 16 ensembles of 2100mm height
20/20 laminated glass are installed, offset and rotated along two
opposing lines. The external side of each glazed ensemble is highly
reflective, while the PVB interlayer has a specific polarizing
treatment.A line of artificial white cold light is added onto one edge of each
glazing ensemble. As a technology of the future, the preferred lighting
feature is LED due to its low energy consumption and running cost.
Furthermore, this technology presents the advantage of emitting a white
cold light that is the ideal counterpart to Marina Bay’s gold-tinged
context. Overall, this association results in a breathtaking outcome.
Progressively, the installation diffuses light shadows from natural to
artificial light sources from the surrounding areas. The dialogue
between virtual, reflected city images and views of the urban
surroundings through the sculptural light and glass artwork creates
memorable experiences for the observer.This light mirage both enhances and harmonises with the cityscape’s dazzling illuminations.
