| Introduction | Futuretro creates interactive light sculptures that are inspired by the natural world, dreams and inner visions. Futuretro [pronounced future-retro] is my creative alias and it symbolises a harmonious 'balance of opposites'. The general theme of my work is the flow and balance of energies. I like to express and share my energy by channelling it into my creations; they are physical representations of the energy that flows through my soul. It is my aim to make unique, eye-catching sculptures for people to enjoy, in the hope of spreading positivity and raising awareness of the necessity for humans to live in harmony with nature. It is possible to interact with Futuretro light sculptures by changing their shapes, patterns and colours using various processes and technologies. Some of the light sculptures also have the additional interactive quality of being responsive to sound and music. "Humans did not weave the web of life; we are merely a strand in it. Therefore, what we do to the web we do to ourselves. We must be at peace with the oneness of all life's energy in order for harmony to arise. Unity with nature is the key to a positive progression." |
