The KCC UK Rehearsals Exhibition – Lighting Design Consultants

The KCCUK collaborated with our lighting design consultants to ensure the exhibition design layout, installation, and lighting were executed flawlessly. The sophisticated design of the exhibition space allowed the visitors to experience the art in a way that complemented the exhibition theme. The lighting was carefully positioned to highlight the intricate details of each artwork and create a captivating visual display. An aspect of the exhibit that added to its uniqueness was the live performance by Kun-Yong Lee, a renowned artist whose work is well-known globally.

Visitors were treated to a re-enactment of Lee’s 1979 Snail’s Gallop performance, one of the most iconic works of the South Korean performance art scene. The artist’s performance was an excellent addition to the exhibition, and the lighting and positioning of the art were designed to work in harmony with the artist’s performance. Rehearsals was an immersive and thought-provoking exhibition that provided a unique view of South Korea’s performance art history. The exhibition’s detail-oriented design and the collaboration between the KCCUK and our creative lighting design consultants ensured an unforgettable experience for all visitors.

Pricelessly orchestrating the lighting design, our lighting team designed an mesmerizing atmosphere that seamlessly intermixed light and space, accentuating the unique qualities of each artwork and performance.

We adopted the following lighting design solutions:

Over one hundred LED light fittings were used throughout the art galleries. Moreover, these lights were consequently fitted with various lighting filters to highlight this incredible art exhibition. The diverse periods of this artistic project were lit using different colour temperatures of light. For example, the older 1960s art used 4000K, while the later artworks used 5000K (a cooler, whiter light). Furthermore, the light temperature change aided in the works’ delineation. Best of all, Kim Ku Lim and Kun-yong Lee are celebrated South Korean artists. They independently remarked on how beautifully the lighting and exhibition design layout had been executed.

The success of the exhibition owes much to the collaborative efforts of the KCCUK and our lighting design team, who expertly balanced artistic vision with technical expertise. The attention to detail not only enhanced the visual impact of contemporary art but also enriched the overall narrative of South Korea’s performance art history. Visitors were transported through a journey of artistic expression and cultural significance.
