We were given the task to find images of various light sources, and the projection/feeling/presence they create. The images below are mostly my photographs (except for when given credit otherwise). I enjoyed the exploration of the vast amounts of different light types, and actions. The beauty light creates is incredible. Enjoy. =)

We were next asked to research a series of artists who have experimented with light.
The piece below is by Marcel Wanders. I found this one in particular to be beautiful, and ornate. I love the way the light filters throughout the entire piece.
The next piece is by Patricia Urquiola. Her light fixtures appear to be very futuristic. This one in particular caught my eye because it demonstrates creative direction with the light source.
This piece is by James Turrell. The shadowing effect of the light is an interesting effect.
This one is by Peter Zumthor. This piece is similar to the light effect that I will be creating with my luminaire for this project.
This one is by Shigeru Ban. I love their use of natural lighting, and direction, shadow, and filtration using crossed pieces.
The final piece that caught my interest is by Zaha Hadid. The use of the light creating an upward illumination was done in such a spectacular way. I immensely enjoy this piece.
