This thesis investigates the lighting design theory Light Inside Out , which is the technique of shaping light toward a creation of lighting installation in performance utilizing a lighting installation in performance . It analyzes the differences between two lighting methods : 1 ) Illuminating a performance by theatrical lighting fixtures from outside the performance space and 2 ) Illuminating a performance with onstage lighting installations . Examples of lighting installation work done by several celebrated artists are also examined in order to demonstrate the unique creative advantage of using lighting installation in performance . Finally , a presentation of my design process for developing lighting installations for past works as well as my most recently developed designs for “ The Difficulty of Crossing a Field” and “Sunyata : Transfigurations in Silk” are included along with pertinent supporting materials , lighting installation process photos , and production photos . |
