LIGHT FOR DRAMA


Exploring nature of spiritual artifacts in Mexico
A visual exploration where light becomes brush, subject, and stage—shaping emotion and space in single captured gestures.

Light has long been a medium for storytelling in theater — illuminating, shaping space, conveying emotion, and guiding perception. Inspired by light designers like Wagner, Appia, and Svoboda, I explore light painting as a contemporary extension of this tradition. Through long-exposure photography and video, I use light as both subject and brush — crafting ephemeral forms that exist only in the moment of capture. Each piece tells a story through rhythm, gesture, and the pattern it becomes - freezing light in time, slowing it down and brining it to speed - trying to explore the nature of light that we can't fully grasp with eyes, and teaching our senses to perceive new patterns.

much like the "psycho-plastic" philosophy of Svoboda, where light becomes actor, space, and emotion at once.These light paintings are not just images—they are scenic moments, suspended in time, meant to invite reflection, interpretation, and a new way of seeing.


Exploring nature of spiritual artifacts in Mexico
A live light painting prototype using motion-sensed gestures and holographic projection to translate movement into light—bridging performative drawing, scenography, and ephemeral image-making. Developed as a demo installation, the project explores light not just as a visual output but as a responsive medium — one that reacts to the performer’s gestures in real time. By combining motion detection with custom digital brushes and holographic display, it creates a layered visual language where the act of drawing becomes both spatial and temporal.
