Solar Chroma

A kinetic solar powered light installation immersing visitors in moving projections of colour and light at Pontio Arts and Innovation Centre, Bangor. The work is in a constant state of flux -continually responding to weather, time of day and position of the sun at different times of the year. On a cloudy day, suspended colour-changing panels display an array of transparent and reflective hues against the ambient daylight, while in moments of sunlight, the appearance of colourful projected shapes onto the surrounding walls and floor transform the space into a sensory walkway. During sunshine, miniature solar-powered mechanisms become activated - rotating the panels to create dynamic projections and reflections of light, colour and movement across the space.
