Artwork Hire Aqualux

Aqualux is an eye-opening feature with an educational twist, so make sure you catch a glimpse of it.

A creative lighting installation composed of 48 unfilled water containers, which typically hold 1,000 litres of water each, specially adapted to create a stunning light feature.

Available in 8mtr x 3mtr x 2.5mtr and 16mtr x 3.5mtr x 2mtr

Did you know the average person uses the same amount of water these containers hold within the space of a year? And that’s only at home! Our great grandparents managed with only three containers.

A sound and light show is incorporated into the artwork consisting of 4 shows on repeat during show hours.

The work contains a ‘skirt’ of banners with interesting facts pertaining to water and our usage. An illustrated leaflet detailing these is also available.

During the Event

There are no Lightpool staff on site during the event, after the technical build and following all testing. To ensure the smooth running of the installation and automated timings of the programme, a permanent power feed is required.

Technology

Each empty IBC container houses a Studio Due Slimbar plus RGBW with POB, an ultra small form factor LED Linear Bar with IP67 rating protection with on board Power Supply. The exterior frame of the containers have a low voltage colour changing neon flex within a plastic mounting frame. Each container feeds into a central unit housing the lighting, audio and timer controls. The start time and end times of the show are programmed for each event.

Install and De-install

For touring events there is no requirement for installation times. The artwork will arrive at the required time and leave at the end of the tour. If touring is for more than 1 night, overnight secure parking is required.

Site specific installation typically takes 2 days, and 2 days for de-installation. Our team consists of three people on build days. They arrive the morning of the build and drive 1 van and 1 truck with all the equipment and materials, nothing will be sent in advance.

On the evening of the technical build day Aqualux is ready for performance. Breakdown takes two days with the same number of people and vehicles.

The process is easy!
