Growing room is a walking-through installation. It combines, as a primary element, LED lights, plants and plant pots which are hung upside down from the ceiling as another ceiling layer with soft natural light. Motion sensor LED lights illuminate a track when/where visitors enter and walk around the room.
It is expected the circulation;
1- People walk around the room > 2-The motion sensor LED light which is just above
people’s head lights up > 3- Plants would perform photosynthesis >
4- Plants grow up > 1
The light would not reach all the plants evenly because it
cannot control people’s walking route. The area people often walk gets a lot of light.
On the other hand, another area may not get enough light to grow up. The disproportion
which is lead by the audience will change the face of the room. It means that the
grown plants have the potential to be a partition from the top, then the unexpected
new space will be created in the room with the lapse of time.
