Presented by LUMA ART FESTIVAL 2026

THRESHOLD is an immersive light installation that explores light as a sculptural medium. A projected beam interacts with a reflective surface, transforming into an evolving field of caustic light that extends beyond the projection plane and occupies the surrounding space. Shaped by reflection and movement, the installation continuously shifts between moments of clarity and abstraction, creating a luminous environment that feels both material and ephemeral.

Rather than presenting a fixed image, THRESHOLD invites visitors to experience light as a physical presence. Audiences are free to walk through the installation, observing the geometry of the light from its source to its reflections and becoming part of the composition as they move through the illuminated field. Their bodies interrupt, reshape, and animate the light, creating an ever-changing relationship between space, perception, and presence.

By transforming a simple beam of light into an immersive spatial experience, THRESHOLD encourages a heightened awareness of how light defines our understanding of space and our relationship to the environments we inhabit.
