Fading Light
These images were captured on the wall of my bedroom as a cloud slowly moved to reveal the sun.
Bocce
One game of bocce played in Auburn University’s arboretum was documented through its many rounds. The movement of the balls takes up a large amount of space that only a place the size of the arboretum can hold. Both images aim to communicate the movement of the game, the scope of game, and the scope of the arboretum.
Seventy-Two-Hour Light Study
Over the course of seventy-two hours, at morning, noon, and dusk, one picture was taken of four walls, each facing a different cardinal direction. Natural light is a critical material to consider in design. It affects the way we view everything the light hits. As seen in this study, depending on the position of the sun in the sky, the amount and intensity of the sunlight changes the perceived color of the wall. This study helps, through visual means, to reiterate how sunlight varies in intensity from different directions at different times of the day and serves as a reminder to consider the orientation of elements with respect to the sun’s path when designing.
Daily Sun Path Light Study
The cycle of the sun throughout the day is captured in these photographs of southern light coming through a window. Beginning in the early morning and moving more toward center by noon, the sunlight ends opposite of where it began by late afternoon. These observations sparked my interest in the movement of light and how it can affect a space. I took these photos after reading writings by Le Corbusier and sitting across from the pictured window.
