Join Women In Lighting (WIL), an inspirational and global digital platform that profiles women working in the field of lighting and lighting design, and Light Collective. The schedule includes the presentation of a new book, 'Collected Light Volume Three: Women in Entertainment Lighting' by Light Collective, followed by presentations by three inspiring women.
Following on from the successful publication in 2022 of ‘Collected Light Volume One: Women Light Artists’, Light Collective will publish a third book in the series, ‘Collected Light Volume Three: Women in Entertainment Lighting’ in November 2024.
Light Collective, a UK-based lighting consultancy have spent the last 25 years working with light in many formats. As well as architectural lighting design, the company is known for its role as light activists within the lighting industry. This has ranged from Guerrilla Lighting demonstrations around the world, showing the transformative nature of light within cities to the global community, to the networking project Women In Lighting, set up to raise the profile of women working with light and to celebrate their achievements.
The Women In Lighting initiative led Light Collective to the curation of this third book, Women In Entertainment Lighting. Women working in this field are in a minority and often uncelebrated. This book is a small step towards trying to redress this unfair imbalance. While researching the book, Light Collective reached out across the globe to many women working in this field.
