ENESS is an Austrailian art and design studio that brings back the childhood memories of playgrounds. This illuminating seesaw installation is entitled 'A Tilt of Light' and it encourages both kids and those who are still kids at heart to laugh and play. The seesaw is equipped with 33 rows of LED lights inside a system of a physics engine.
The installation is both an art and a public interaction that invites people to hop up and down to light up Federation Square in the city of Melbourne. The facial expressions on everyone who rides this light-blasting seesaw are of pure joy, and there's no differentiation between the younger children and 'mature' adults. A Tilt of Light by ENESS will be bringing more joy and light to Federation Square up until July 1.
