Illuminated by Youth and Driven by Purpose
To celebrate the International Day of Light 2025, the Lighting Lab at the University of Sydney, in collaboration with IESANZ, proudly presents a Student Art Installation Exhibition —a vibrant gathering of lighting designers, manufacturers, artists, architects, and educators.
The younger generation is full of energy and determination to shape the future. They honour light as a medium for creativity, sustainability, social progress, and cultural connection. Their work explores themes of light, technology, and society. These installations are more than art—they are statements of purpose, echoing a desire for change and a vision of a brighter tomorrow.
We warmly invite you to join us in this inspiring celebration of light.
🗓 Date: 16 May 2025. 3:00 to 6:30 PM
📍 Location: Room 135, Wilkinson Building, School of Architecture, Design and Planning, University of Sydney
