NAME: LEVEL

AUTHOR: IF, a Paris-based collective whose work, ranging from art installations to product design, uses light to connect virtual universes to physical reality.

DESCRIPTION: Created to celebrate the 5 years of Parisian club La Machine du Moulin Rouge, this installation is “a dialogue between space and its limitations.” The support is made of a transparent material superimposed onto another semi-reflective surface. The multiplied light creates a new sense of depth which opens up the space onto a new dimension.

AMUSEMENT RATE: Level appears to be a metaphor of a techno club. Through its music and its light show, a club opens up new perspectives to its audience. The lights projections are here used to breach the physical space and to take use to an abstract world where music and light become one. The installation is on show for two more weekends at La Machine, make sure to check it out if you are in Paris.

There’s a dazzling projection art event coming to Sharjah.

Sharjah Light Festival is returning for 2022 with 11 nights of colourful projections and music. If this year is anything like previous festivals, our eyes are in for a treat.

The colourful festival is the first and only of its kind in the region and has been running for over ten years. It attracts thousands of visitors to up to 20 locations in Sharjah each year. The designs are inspired by local culture, stories and traditions.

The 2022 Sharjah Light Festival goes from February 9 to February 20 and is organized by the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority.

The festival brings a kaleidoscope of creative lights and colour to Sharjah’s architecture. Diverse locations are featured during the annual show, with light and sound spectacles that transform them. (Have your camera ready.) The festival uses energy-saving lighting technology and all the lights and projectors used have passed certification for environmental compliance.

The Sharjah Light Festival also showcases the emirate’s rich heritage and historical monuments. Local and international artists, musicians and light technicians collaborate to showcase the emirate’s achievements.
