#TheLIST: books for your summer

Wherever your vacation takes you, Lumino shares with you the summer books you need to pack.

Book #1 'You say Light, I think Shadow'

To formulate this collection, graphic designer Sandra Praun and artist Aleksandra Stratimirović posed the question, “What is light?” to an international array of creative and eclectic individuals, from artists, lighting designers, and writers, to architects, photographers, and film-makers. The spectrum of responses they received in return is compiled and visualised in this surprising and boldly conceived volume incorporating poetic and personal thoughts, visions, memories, definitions, stories, and much more. Page after page, it presents a fascinating portrayal of the essential and pervasive concept embodied by light in the workings of the creative mind.

Latest work - Northern Lights – June 2016

Northern Lights is a light-art piece inspired by the enthralling experience of the aurora borealis, the spectacular and poetic natural light phenomenon that occurs in the sky of the northern hemisphere. In May 2016, invited by the Jerusalem Light Festival, Northern Lights travelled to the Holy Land to dwell within the walls of the ancient Old City, just beside the Jaffa Gate and under the Tower of David. With the backdrop of the historical Jerusalem City Wall dating from the era of Suleyman the Magnificent the poetry of the Northern Lights attained a dreamlike  interaction with the winds of the warm dark Jerusalem nights. The Jerusalem Light festival attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors during its seven days.
