Northern Shadows is an interactive sensory installation that seeks to indirectly communicate the essence of northern lights or aurora borealis. This piece was developed by our team of students at Aalto University and presented at the 'Story of Space' festival held in Goa in 2017. The aim of the installation intended to build a link between India and Finland and we sought to portray the northern lights in a tropical place where people do not get a chance to experience it. The installation consisted of many layers brought about with the use of water, projections, shadows, trackers, and interactivity. It drew a spatial symphony inside a dark room building a sense of immersion, presence, and awe.
