For the love of place: we have an innate ability to habituate our towns, communities and neighborhoods. By taking that love for granted, we run the risk of becoming blind to it.
lightStruct revitalizes, reinvigorates and reveals anew our lived environment, bringing together digital art and the public realm into one-of-a-kind projection exhibitions that build on and increase appreciation of where we live and work.
Clients suggest a project, lightStruct brings the light. Modular at its core, lightStruct mounts exhibitions in any space. A veritable lumberyard of options, an exhibition might start as 2×4 (2 projectors x 4 artists) and grow to 36×36 (36 projectors x 36 artists) to adapt to an ever-changing environment.
lightStruct is a living catalog of immersive experiences. lightStruct’s iterative nature maintains its experimental essence, defending against the banal and expanding the opportunities to enchant. lightStruct generates connections between people and form, idea and place–cultivating a cohesive and enduring sense of community in its wake.
lightStuct was founded by Brett Phares, an artist and curator working in immersive art and the built environment. With 20+ years in interactive media, he has created innovative projects for both startups and international brands. He has exhibited internationally, and cofounded the annual immersive art festival Digital Graffiti, named by Smithsonian Magazine as one of top five “can’t miss” light festivals in the world.
