Archival encounters with the light fantastic

‘I am interested in the sort of light that
makes you see and experience something
differently. My friend Arnold Chan, who is
an exceptional lighting designer, talks
about light as an emotion and it is true
that there is perhaps no one single factor
which has a more profound impact on
how you feel in a place.’
