Inside Mumbai's Viral Light Festival Taking Place At Colaba's Historic Afghan Church: Here's How You Can Attend It For Free
What happens when one of Colaba’s most recognisable historic landmarks meets a world of light, colour and cosmic imagery? This weekend, Mumbai gets to find out. The historic Afghan Church is becoming the setting for an immersive projection-mapping experience that promises to make its Gothic architecture look completely different after sunset.
Every weekend in Mumbai, the historic Afghan Church at Colaba is set to transform into an extraordinary light and color spectacle. This immersive experience, part of the Mumbai Light Festival, promises to reimagine the church's Gothic architecture in an entirely new light after sunset.
The Floating Canvas Company (FCC) has created ASCENSION, an installation that uses light and projection to bring the church's architectural features to life. Rather than merely projecting visuals onto the building, the experience integrates the church's Gothic arches, intricate details, and stained-glass elements into the visual composition. As shifting patterns, colors, and celestial imagery move through the space, the historic church becomes a canvas for a truly unique atmospheric experience.
The concept behind ASCENSION draws inspiration from humanity's timeless fascination with what lies beyond the known. True to its name, the installation encourages viewers to reach towards something larger, utilizing cosmic imagery and radiance to create a mesmerizing ambiance within the church walls.
