LuX
Lux is an ongoing project that spawned out of a passion that I have for capturing light through long exposure photography. The premise was to capture the movement of the human body in different forms of sport. I designed and constructed 4 identical boxes that lit up and were able to accommodate different coloured photo gels in order to create contrast between different body parts.
The initial Lux offering consisted of four units however with the ease of rapid prototyping many more can be made in short order.
An interior shot of one of the Lux units. Initially I was quite hung up on how I was going to illuminate Lux but then went with a “simpler is better” approach and used light strings in combination with photo gels to change the colour.
A criteria for this project was the need for it to be laser cut, the file that I created is above.
Above is a gallery of a selection from one of the initial photoshoots I did with Lux. As long exposure photography is a passion of mine, I intend to do more photoshoots with lux spanning a broad range of subject sports.
