Installation Art

One aspect of Post Modern art is installation art; work that relates to its environment by incorporating and reacting to its physical location. Here is a classic example of installation art from artnexus.com


In terms of lighting, I have found two trends that relate to this concept. The first are lights that create shadows and light patterns that are projected past the light itself and onto the lights surrounding environment. The light uses the room as its canvas, the patterns it projects are altered by its surrounding physical environment . from designshoot.com

Another trend in lighting are lights that relate to their environment. These lights incorporate their mounting location and power source into the design. They seem to be engaged with and reacting to their environment.
