One Beam of Light
Concord
Focus Group (Lighting Journal May 2013)
One Beam of Light was a global photographic project based on the creative use of light. We asked the participants to submit stunning and inspirational photographs that began with a single source of light – light stripped to its barest, minimum essential. The images were intended to allow entrants to show the world the versatility of one beam of light, its inherent beauty and their ability to manipulate it. The images demonstrated the entrants passion for the medium of light.
The images were curated by a guest panel of lighting designers and visionaries including Terence Woodgate, Keith Bradshaw of Speirs and Major, Matt Clark of UVA and Gerd Pfarre to form a pop-up touring exhibition. The exhibition of the top 31 opened at the ICA in London on the 15th April with a special installation from GNI Projects. A newspaper of the shortlisted images accompanied the event.
The project has being made possible through the generous support of Concord Lighting.
