The Painting With Lights Project

From PetaPixel:

What happens when the concept of graffiti as we know it is flipped on its head? Well, I believe you end up with something like ‘Painting with Lights,’ a project by French photographer Philippe Echaroux — something he calls ‘Street Art 2.0.’

Combining the idea of light painting and graffiti, Echaroux turns everyday scenery and landscapes into beautiful, thought-provoking, and — arguably most importantly — temporary pieces of light art.

Using a projector hooked up to a computer and a portable generator, Echaroux and his small crew shine photographs of his on buildings, trees, geological formations and anything else that’ll work, really.

The concept behind this started out as something “simple,” according to Echaroux. As photographers we’re always taking light to make images. Through this project, his goal was to give some light back to the world in the form of art that’s “real” and “touchable.”
