L. Mikelle Standbridge presents her personalized on-going 'documentary' series of light-art installations, L.E.D. Lightscapes. The term L.E.D. refers both to the light source used to illuminate the majority of the works and to the name of the event held in Milan from which this photographic series is derived - Light Exhibition Design. By photographing these installations Standbridge wishes to offer a tribute to the light artists - who conceived their work to be presented in a public context - and the city - who responded to contemporary needs (in terms of low-energy consumption and urban beautification) by sponsoring the event. The series has now grown to include Turin's light-artist event, Luci d'Artista. With the photographic medium the light artists' temporary installations can benefit from a continued presence, even if this presence is in the form of an ephemerally-impressionistic aesthetic and a singular interpretation formulated by one viewer/photographer/citizen.
