light model

when given this project, i envisioned a mostly white form made of either foam core or matboard. i thought a simpler, more abstract model would allow for more lighting options and varied effects. well, maybe that's so. to my surprise, we took a 'leap of faith' with a pink box form and went to work on creating our own original luminaires with a small flashlight, candle lights, and LEDs. i think it turned out rather will (in spite of the pink!)

center | the more 'yellow' candle lights changed the milk-of magnesia pink to a more palatable hue (my opinion, of course).

glass beads/marbles were used to create 2 of the luminaires to be used with the candle lights. those are for effect/sparkle. in the far left image, the white LED luminaire created ambient lighting and very little change in color. on the right, the flashlight LED has a slight blue color, giving the space a more magenta hue. for texture, stockings & fleece were added to soften the space.
