About Baksa

Solution

  Baksa (meaning "Box" in Hindi) is an interactive light-based art installation. It is a massive cube structure with six faces, each representing a visual metaphor for "being lost," including mazes and whirlpool motifs. It features colorful lights as idle state and strobe-like fluctuations in triggered mode to create party-like energy. The design intends to dazzle at first glance and maintain interest through immersive visual feedback
