The latest light-installation by Dutch artist-designer Daan Roosegaarde turns a 20,000 square-meter leek field into a luminous dreamscape of red and blue light. It’s a tribute to the farmers cultivating the fields that feed the world while also inspiring us to imagine a more sustainable future.
For the installation, Roosegaarde drew inspiration from scientific light recipes that improve plant growth. He and his team of engineers and designers collaborated closely with scientists from Wageningen University & Research as well as experts from the World Economic Forum Davos. Studies have shown that UV light can protect crops from damage. For example, it can help against powdery mildew, which often ruins entire crops. Scientists investigate different wavelengths, light recipes, and cultivar responses to UV. According to Prof. Dr. Wargent, Ph.D., Chief Science Officer at BioLumic, and a leading expert in plant photobiology, scientific research shows that specific light recipes can enhance growth and reduce pesticide use up to 50%.
