Make it stand out.

Spectra Light Festival

Aberdeen’s annual Light Art festival attracting in excess of 90,000 light lovers each year.

I was invited to create a series of site-specific works around the city to form a high-profile exhibition at the cities prestigious Marischal College.

Aberdeen is such a fascinating city so it was vital that I chose sites of historical and cultural significance to the people and of course scouring the lesser walked paths to unearth some hidden or forgotten gems.

My site-specific work is very much focused on celebrating our built environment with my light forms acting as temporary light sculptures, I also seek to encourage the audience to re-consider ‘the everyday’ places that hide in plain sight.

The near artic temperatures and plentiful rain was eclipsed by the extremely warm welcome from the city: The help of some amazing local guides, the local press (front page news!) and the 90,000+ art loving people of the city made this an unforgettable experience.
