The Beauty of Shadows

by Nancy Yen-Wen Cheng

Fachhochschule Wiesbaden, Dec. 11-12, 2006
sponsored by Joachim Kieferle and the FH Wiesbaden International Office.

Designers can paint dynamic pictures with shadows, using them to reveal the relationships between light source, object and surface.  In a two day workshop, students played with creating shadows, searched for shadows and then designed a shop window with physical models.
