LUMINOUS ART EXPERIENCE - Family Friendly SALA Event - access a trail of luminous artworks in hidden spaces of Port Adelaide.

Join us on an illuminated guided walk and talk around the streets of Port Adelaide and discover interactive art and playful spaces that will delight kids and grownups alike. The tour will feature luminous artworks and sculptures, light box art, UV art, exhibition windows, projected gallery spaces, artists windows, light installations and moving images. Hot chocolate available along the way!

The Luminous Trail uses the landscape of Port Adelaide as the gallery, moving the audience from street scape, to laneways and interiors to experience delightful small scale illuminated arts intimately presented with the midwinter darkness as a textured backdrop.

Port Adelaide with its rustic buildings, weather worn stone walls and charming historic facades is a wonderful and mysterious after dark canvas for lighting artists, as it has less light pollution than suburbs full of bright shops and traffic – the ideal place to really enjoy luminous arts.

The Luminous Trail – an exhibition and guided walk -will be presented in Port Adelaide as a part of the SALA Festival (2-25 August 2013) and is designed to showcase the diverse and beautiful practise of illuminated artworks and ephemeral art and creative ways of working with light.

Artists involved in the event include: “Harry”, Michelle Wegund, Patty Chehade, Steve Glass, Nat Rogers, Penny Campton, Danica Gacesa McLean, Lucy Thurley, Penny Mortimer, Peter Ogrady, Peter Thompson, Vanessa Kalderovskis, Danica Headland, Nick de Rohan, Craig Laurendet, Kathryn Sproul, Neville Cichon, Jasmin McAllister, Sue McKenzie, Mike Retter, Barbara Saberton, Cindi Drennan, Luku Kukuku, Allison Whyatt and many others.
