Inspired by the form and behaviour of the lightning phenomenon, the installation comprises of a series of bracing modules that form a radial latticework of light segments. When triggered by touch, bolts of lights gradually flare up in a branching manner. It becomes an interface that not only mimics the ethereal nature of lightning but also allows people to have direct visceral and emotional connections, creating that ‘spark’ that is seemingly disappearing in today’s virtually-connected world.
Its form is materialised within an invincible container, creating layers of controlled chaos that reveals itself in split moments, amidst darkness. The structure of the installation adapts from the branching form of lighting, which is similar to a tree structure, enabling materials to be used efficiently.
Upon completion of the festival, the installation was reinstalled at A Place Where (APW) former printing factory turned creative hub in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
