Light Evoking Emotions: The Element of Surprise in theatre and photography conveyed through the medium of light.Parallels and applications in Architecture
The aim of this dissertation is to research the way light is used as a tool to reveal emotions, focusing on The Element of Surprise. Light is a powerful medium that could instantly change the perception of space in terms of mood and atmosphere that is created by it. By observing the way light is used to reveal ‘Surprise’ in contemporary Theatrical Performances and contemporary painting techniques such as Light Photography Painting paradigms, we can find parallels and apply similar techniques of thought, into the creation of architectural indoor and outdoor public spaces.The feeling of surprise is an extremely intense emotion happening instantly and has an important impact on human brain and psychology. The main characteristic of this feeling is that whatever causes surprise is unforgettable. People feel this emotion as the result of an unexpected event and surprise happens when expectations mismatch reality, regardless of the fact that it can be something positive or negative.This Thesis starts by observing light within a contemporary Greek theatrical performance called “The Experiment”, which took place on April 2019 in “Megaron” Athens Concert Hall, trying to identify the way that light is used to evoke the feeling of surprise, while at the same time examining the work of a Slavak photographer Jozef Sedlak, who uses light as a painting tool in his contemporary ‘Painting Photographs’ οften creating surrealistic pictures that provoke the feeling of surprise to the viewers. More specifically, the dissertation focuses on dynamic and static 3D and 2D representations of light used to reveal surprise in order to draw conclusions for architectural 3D space that can be experienced dynamically (move through) or statically (sit/stand and contemplate one specific perspective) by comparing the above mentioned contemporary theatrical performance with interiors of Hilton Tokyo and Midland Square Tokyo ,and Photography Painting with 2D lighting schemes Yamaguchi Xavier Memorial Church and Okiden Naha Building for their ...
