Presented every two years, this FREE week-long video art exhibition showcases video projects by artists from around the world in unexpected public spaces throughout the downtown core of Kamloops. As an off-site Kamloops Art Gallery initiative, Luminocity embraces new creative concepts and modes of expression in the media arts field and brings recent video projects previously shown primarily in gallery settings to the outdoors.
Inspired by popular public art events such as Nuit Blanche that take over major cities like Toronto and Montréal, Luminocity transforms Kamloops’ urban environment with nightly projections and site-specific installations at Riverside Park and the façade of the Gallery’s building.
Each year offers a new curatorial framework and a new selection of artists, sharing insightful perspectives on the world around us. Luminocity is a unique opportunity for all ages to take in video art projects from a diversity of artists and to explore the city of Kamloops in a new way.
