Solar Chroma 2017
Kinetic solar powered light installation at the new £50m Pontio Arts and Innovation Centre, Bangor, North Wales.
In moments of sunlight, miniature solar powered mechanisms become activated - rotating a series of suspended dichroic panels to create dynamic projections and reflections of light, colour and movement across the space.
Spanning 40 metres across the south facing window facade, the work changes throughout the day, responding to the position of the sun in the sky to create a sensory walkway.
Made in collaboration with electronic engineers at Bangor University.
