Eaton’s new skatepark lit up in a dazzling display of colour as a digital art installation was unveiled at a recent community event.

The Shire of Dardanup launched EnLighten, a one-night-only event designed to shed light on the people, places and moments that bring happiness to the community through a playful exploration of light and digital technologies.

Created by Illuminart, the installation told stories using projection technology that wrapped over the sculptural forms of the skatepark, transforming it into an immersive digital landscape.

The light show came to life on October 1 as part of a community event featuring a line-up of Dinner at Dusk food trucks, live music and opportunities to connect with mental health services via market stalls.

Content for EnLighten was generated by various community groups such as Manea College graphic design students, visual arts students at South West Regional TAFE, students at Grace Christian Primary School and Dardanup Primary School, BREC’s Kick Start My Art project, Milligan House and South West Aboriginal Health Services.
