The exhibition PHOTOTAXIS will be held in Paris from 25 to 31 October this year. In this exhibition, we use light as an artistic expression from the point of view of science and philosophy to stimulate the interaction between light and humans and how to influence the social behavior of human beings after the development of synthetic light sources and electronic devices.

In our exhibition Phototaxis, we discuss not only the aesthetic value of light as an artistic expression, but above all, we explore the scientific relationship between light and humans through this exhibition. The interaction between complex social behaviors. Light plays a vital role in regulating our circadian rhythm, one of our natural biological rhythms: human beings are naturally dependent on physical and psychological light. In addition, light can easily create and intervene in space, leading to different perspectives of the same space and a feeling of integration in the virtual space. In this exhibition, from the point of view of science and philosophy, through different interpretations of light in the history of the development of art, inspiring the natural, social and personal aspects of light.
