SPECTRUM SERIES
EN
Inspired by Newton’s research on light, Spectrum takes shape through an in situ installation composed of several coloured light lines. The light decomposes through an optical prism to reveal the visible spectrum. This project unfolds through various installations in situ, with or without sound, composed of several colored light lines.
Spectrum's first version was created in summer 2019 thanks to Electric Castle festival in Bontida, Romania.

Le projet Spectrum s’inspire de l’expérience de Newton réalisée au 17e siècle sur la lumière blanche : en passant à travers un prisme optique, la lumière se décompose pour laisser apparaître le spectre visible. Ce projet se déploie via diverses installations in situ, avec ou sans son, composées de plusieurs lignes lumineuses colorées.
La première version de Spectrum a été créée durant l'été 2019 grâce au festival Electric Castle à Bontida, Roumanie.

Light installation
EN
Fourteen suspended and seemingly disorganized light bars form a perfect parallelism from a specific point. Each bar diffuses a chromatic color of the light spectrum via a slow gravitational light movement associated with a spatialized sound track.
FR
Suspendues et désorganisées en apparence, 14 barres lumineuses forment ensemble un parallélisme parfait depuis un point précis. Chaque barre diffuse une couleur chromatique du spectre lumineux via un lent mouvement de lumière gravitationnel associé à une partition sonore spatialisée.
