Light Breaks In

​

"Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. It is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. A column and a column brings light between them. To make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist."

​

"Even a room which must be dark needs at least a crack of light to know how dark it is."

​

Louis Kahn

​

The above two quotes by Louis Kahn perfectly sums up the complimentary relationship between light, shadow and architecture. This is another personal photo project to show light breaks in and cast its shadows and I hope to capture the essence of Louis Kahn's quotes in the photos.
