Ian Strange "FINAL ACT"

Visual artist Ian Strange was commissioned by Canterbury Museum to create light-based interventions inside four New Zealand homes that were damaged by the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. 16,000 families were displaced when their homes were slated for demolition.

The project is called Final Act. Strange worked with demolition and salvage teams to restore the homes close to their pre-quake state, then they cut geometric shapes out of the structures so that the beams of light (and life) could shine through and filled and photographed them.
