Woodwards is a space where the community comes together- so what better way to celebrate the community than by bringing in a community art project!!

Live Paint Night is art created by the people. This project will be brought to you in collaboration with the glass artist Aurelia Bizouard!!

Anyone and everyone is welcome to come down to the Atrium to contribute to this piece. No restrictions!!

How does this work?
People create a canvas on a wall or a mural from a glass art through which a light is projected to create a “live light painting”
Painting the lines of light and fill-out the canvas with colours like a huge colouring book is a unique immersive experience. It was done at art galléries, in art studios and in public places. The art resulting from this collective exercise reflects the creativity and the energy of the people involved: a beautiful and colourful piece of art is created by people.

STATEMENT from Aurelia Bizouard:
The question we always try to ask is how to connect people with art?
I believe this can happen by providing an immersive experience at a venue to unify people around art. The concept of playing with light and colours invites people in an interactive art piece: they will discover how creating could impact their life and how it could bring people together.
