Our daily expos­ure to light is a key factor in a healthy and sustain­able life in urban envir­on­ments. Light received at the eye regu­lates our neuro­physiology and profoundly affects the live­ab­il­ity of cities, which we tend to inhabit increas­ingly indoors and deeper under­ground. This multi-sensorial immer­sion seeks to bring aware­ness about the threat of our discon­nec­tion from natural light and reflect on the rela­tion­ships between urban life­styles and light hygiene through a day in the life – or, rather, a day in the light.

L’ex­po­si­tion quoti­dienne à la lumière est un facteur clé d’une vie saine et durable dans un envi­ron­ne­ment urbain. Captée par l’œil, la lumière régule notre neuro­phy­sio­lo­gie et affecte profon­dé­ment le carac­tère vivable des villes, où nous passons de plus en plus de temps en inté­rieur. Cette immer­sion multi­sen­so­rielle fait prendre conscience de la menace que repré­sente notre décon­nexion à la lumière natu­relle, et fait réflé­chir sur les rela­tions entre modes de vie urbains et hygiène lumi­neuse sur une jour­née de vie – ou plutôt une jour­née de lumière.
