about wind to light

this experimental site-specific installation illustrates alternative, sustainable ways of harnessing energy that will explore the power of the wind in the city, visualising it as an ephemeral cloud of light.

the installation is custom built, using 500 mini wind turbines to generate power, which illuminates hundreds of mounted leds, creating firefly-like fields of light, with wind visually interpreted as electronic patterns across the installation.

wind around the southbank generates the power, creating a unique and thought-provoking light art piece that will delight all ages.

Roof Testing

I was very cold when this photo was taken,  we installed the test and then had to wait for it to get dark and windy.  It didn’t get dark till 10:00 so it we were there for a while.
