Pharos

2018
Variable Dimensions
Photography Installation (Images of lights in ancestral frames with LED bulbs)


Pharos of Alexandria was a lighthouse in current day Alexandria, Egypt. It is known to be one of the Seven Wonders in the Ancient World and one of the tallest human-made structure then. However, it was destroyed by an earthquake in the 1300s.

Marvelling at our technological advancement of city living, I likened the usage and symbolism of artificial lights to Pharos of the Ancient World. By capturing them and transforming them into memorabilia in funerary frames, I hope to keep these structures’ memories alive never to be destroyed.
