Noctulica
2019
Schools
Espai Simon 100. Carrer de Sancho de Àvila, 66
EINA, University School of Design and Art of Barcelona (UAB)
The Noctulica project explores the perception of light and reflects on bioluminescence, a phenomenon generated when an external element interacts with a live organism such as Noctiluca scintillans, a bioluminescent species of plankton. The light emitted by Noctulica scintillans is gentle: it illuminates the shapes in the water, generating a composition of light in constant movement that plays with our perceptions and the visual experience.
