Installations of light sculptures by RPI School of Architecture students will be on display as part of the Troy Glow 2024 festival November 1-10. The festival features light art installations on a 15-minute walk through Troy’s historic streets. Visitors can explore on their own or join guided tours. 

Nic Roscioli-Barran and Arianna Speleotes, students in Assistant Professor Yael Erel’s lighting seminar “Projecting Lightscapes,”  will use projections to animate shadows in the back patio of Lucas Confectionary at 211 Broadway during two seminar workshop sessions. The workshops will be held on Friday November 1 at 7-8:30 p.m. and Saturday, November 9 at 7-8:30 p.m.

In addition, Erel  will be setting up an installation at lightexture (her studio), where she will be testing the light art she developed with Carla Leitao, assistant professor of architecture, for the recent opera The Other Side of Silence workshop at EMPAC. A projection and light objects prototypes will also be on display at Lucas Confectionary throughout the festival.
