Architects of Air
Since 1990 Architects of Air have exhibited in 25 countries on 5 continents. Luminaria are exhibited in a range of context: arts festival, theatre festival, science festival and often as exhibits in their own right.
Alan Parkinson has been building luminaria since 1985. ’What first engaged me is the subtle yet astonishing beauty of the light and colour that is intrinsic to this medium. I am interested to present this experience in an architecture that is designed to enhance the sense of wonder. For inspiration I turn to cathedral and mosque architecture as well as more contemporary influences such as Buckminster Fuller and Frei Otto. I draw on natural forms and geometric solids to develop new pneumatic shapes.’
In recent years, Insite Arts have toured Amococo, Levity III and Mirazozo.
