Open Call for Collaborators: Collecting Light Art Project

Image of the project Eyes of the Skin

The project will include study of light, light in Madrid, light art history, but also study of absence of light and obscure sites in Madrid. Most of the time will be used to experiment with various light emitting materials such as natural light, artificial light, algorithmic and interactive light systems, reflective materials, screens, projections, and video.

Sessions will be delivered in English.

It is a local workshop and therefore Medialab-Prado does not cover lodging, travel nor per diem costs for participants.
