Explore This Amazing WorkGlow Globs Lighting Installation
Glow Globs is an inflatable lighting installation, made from white nylon fabric a blower fan and lED lights. The inflatables design is to be abstract and spark curiosity in the minds of the viewers. The forms were generated by exploring shapes of smoke and air flow. Like a cloud people engage by guessing and imaging the shapes they see. At night the LED lights change color becoming very playful and joyous. The inflatables are meant to critique and respond to the inflatable holiday lawn ornaments so commonly displayed in suburban yards and turn the cartoonish style into something artistic.
