Products, Atmospheres and Interactions.
Relationship between the physical and phenomenological bodies and Light Art
Abstract
Light Art integrates characteristics of the virtual world into physical space. According to phenomenology, everything we perceive feels real to our brain, making these installations experienced as real. Bruno Latour introduced the concept of "script" to describe the behavioral instructions imposed on us by technologies. Light Art installations lead us to behave in specific ways depending on their nature. This generates diverse experiences based on the particular piece. This study analyses several Light Art installations, focusing on their interaction with physical and phenomenological bodies. Based on this, a tripartite categorisation is proposed according to the relationship between art and the body: products, atmospheres, and interactions. This connection between body and art can serve as a transformative element in contemporary cultural and urban spaces.
