The creative vision underlying the Architects of Air luminaria comes from a desire to create monumental works whose purpose is to generate a sense of wonder through the particular phenomenon of luminous colour. The inspirations are the pure forms of geometry and nature and spiritual architecture from around the world.

A luminarium provides a very accessible way of bringing a visual arts experience to a broad public. Visitors are encouraged to take it slowly when they explore the luminarium. People will walk round following their maps through the maze observing the effect of different coloured light on the appearance of their skin and clothing. They can sit down in the ‘pods’ and lie back to immerse themselves in the ambience of the colour and music. Visitors often have questions and like to discuss their experience with the stewards.

The stewards staffing a luminarium have a varied role to play. There is the purely practical aspect of running the structure – opening doors, taking tickets, helping with the cleaning etc. More importantly there is the relationship with the public – this is where you can make the biggest contribution in helping visitors to have the optimum experience of the luminarium.

You will need to be available for all of the following times: 4pm – 7pm Friday 25^th, 9am – 5pm Saturday 26^th & Sunday 27^th August 2022. (Friday is a training session for the weekend)
