Twice a Light

The second project took place in winter time which brings us the dark months. Where it seems we get up to darkness and go to sleep in darkness. I never like this point in the year as every little bad thing seems to become a lot worse than it is really worth. However not all is doom and gloom, I do love the lights that shine and has the ability to change the way a city looks. This idea is what I based my next project around.  


Plymouth city in the sunshine 


A new city after the sun goes down


 
To reflex the changes, like the city, when the light is switched on, I wanted it to have two looks. The first is when the light is off, which just shows small squares in a pattern, and then when it is on, which shows the blacked out buildings.
The wood is flexy ply that has the ability to bend which I was then able to make it fit around a base that I made. CNC was also used to cut out all the small squares and lines.
