Lumina is an interactive installation that aims to generate a sense of presence by exploring the personal and peripersonal space of the user. The instrument reflects interactive boundaries of light drawn by our bodies. The intensity, color, and shape of the boundary is modified when the user extends or retracts their arms.
The aim of Lumina is to examine the mental and physical boundaries that the human body creates in physical reality, seeking to explore how these boundaries shape individual behavior.
