The significance of Projecting Light to depict the Universe through Visual Arts

"I have inside me the winds, the deserts, the oceans, the stars, and everything created in the universe. We were all made by the same hand, and we have the same soul."

- Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

I believe astronomical art installations can make us connect with the universe, and while depicting the universe, lights can play a primal role. Hence I’ve experimented with lights and installations in this journey. The concepts of this portfolio can be divided into two parts, scientific and philosophical. Through this portfolio, one can see how humans have connected themselves to the universe throughout history.
