This Light Show,

features a projection that uses a combination of LED and lenses, 


 Dutch artist and designer Daan Roosegaarde created WATERLICHT to raise awareness about rising water levels, 

 the lights form a constantly shifting layer of billowing blue light, 

 above the heads of viewers,

 since its inception in 2016 as a site-specific artwork for Amsterdam’s Dutch District Water Board, the immersive installation has been shown across the world in London, Toronto, Paris, Rotterdam, Dubai, and at the United Nations headquarters in New York City,

 in a statement on the artist’s website, WATERLICHT is described as a “dream landscape about the power and poetry of water… WATERLICHT creates a collective experience to share the importance of water innovation.” 

 He was recently named a visiting professor at Monterrey University in Monterrey, Mexico for 2019,

 You can discover more of Roosegaarde’s projects on his website, and watch an interview with the artist at the site of WATERLICHT’s Toronto installation in the video below
