TREASURE FROM THE HEART

Cupid will be blindfolded when they shoots their arrow, because love is love and it does not distinguish between genders, races, skin colors and any external factors. Love is the treasure that cannot be seen with the eyes; it needs to be felt with the heart.

However, some LGBTQ members are socially stigmatized because of the effects of their sexual orientation or gender identity.“According to the Trevor Project’s 2022 National Survey on LGBTQ Youth Mental Health, most of LGBTQ youth (73%) have experienced discrimination for their sexual orientation or gender identity, and 45% LGBTQ youth trying suicide in the past year.“

This installation explores the significance of light for socially inclusive development and the development of sustainability of sunlight. In this installation, the white sunlight will be diffracted into the colours of the rainbow and reflects it onto the roof of the installation, to call for greater inclusion of LGBTQ people.

At the same time, the wooden structure of the installation will coverd by the Luminescent paint to absorb sunlight during the day and provide light in the form of phosphorescence at night to achieve sustainability of sunlight.
