Infinity, Palazzo Bembo. Time, Space, Existence exhibition, Venice

‍

Infinity, a light installation by Light Cognitive, captures the everchanging, expansive sky, providing visitors with a sense of tranquility and optimism.

Light Cognitive was awarded the European Cultural Centre Award in the Design category for Infinity, presented in the curated exhibition Time, Space, Existence during the 2023 Venice Architectural Biennale. Christele Harrouk, judge for the European Cultural Centre Awards, expressed admiration for the installation, stating, "Light Cognitive's installation truly transforms space and recreates a natural landscape using light."

In Infinity, art, design, and technology converge to create a work that feels both timeless and innovative. This installation reflects Light Cognitive’s vision of blending artistic expression with advanced technology, using design as a bridge to bring the natural world indoors. The visual beauty of the sky—its aesthetics and harmony—is as essential as capturing the precise spectrum and lux levels that bring this experience to life.

In the 15th-century Venetian palace of Palazzo Bembo, Infinity offers a captivating interplay between heritage and innovation. Bringing modern light technology into this historic environment, Light Cognitive invites viewers to experience a timeless landscape that harmonizes past and present.

Infinity recreates the vastness of the sky, evolving Light Cognitive’s groundbreaking 2016 design, Horizon. This large-scale light installation expertly replicates the spectral qualities of natural light, creating an immersive experience for visitors. Using proprietary technology, Infinity gradually changes in color and intensity to mirror the sky’s hues at different times of day.

Light Cognitive’s approach to lighting and spatial design offers a new dimension that brings the daylight experience indoors, fostering a sense of openness and connection to nature.
