Light is one of the foundations of life on planet Earth. And when the ability to control it falls into the hands of a skilled person, it turns out to be a delightful sight. Such, for example, as interactive installation Imagination Light Garden at the Royal Rachapruek Park in Bangkok.
The English artist Bruce Munro has already tried to make the forest glow. True, he had these artificial "plants" made of glass and polymers. But the members of the Thai design studio Apostrophy, in fact, turned green spaces into luminous fluxes. Moreover, they did it in one of the main parks of their country.
The Imagination Light Garden installation covers an area of 6,300 square meters. It is based on the green spaces of Rachapruek Park in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand. This property has royal status, so the authorities have given studio Apostrophy a serious privilege, allowing you to deploy work in this particular location.
Apostrophy artists used over two million light bulbs to create the Imagination Light Garden installation. It took them a huge amount of time, but now every tree, every bush, every flower in the royal park Rachapruek has its own multi-colored backlight.
This provides tremendous opportunities for creating the visual image of Rachapruek in the dark. Moreover, the colors, shades and intensity of the glow of these bulbs can change, depending on the movement of people walking in this park, as well as their number. So the Imagination Light Garden installation can be called interactive.
Well, as you might expect, the Imagination Light Garden installation uses exclusively the energy it receives from solar panels - the batteries are charged all daylight, so that in the evening, Bangkok residents and guests of the city can watch an incredible light spectacle!
