Beacon was my first project at CSM’s Foundation for Art and Design, under the ‘HACK CITY’ brief, where we were tasked to interrupt London. I chose to interrupt the Heath, because it presented a uniquely natural setting, along with one that requires strategic interruption so as to not seem indelicate. Living near the Heath, I could walk across it to get to class— but when darkness came at 3:30 during winter, it became dangerous to navigate. Beacon was the response to a problem I was experiencing in that very moment.
