Luminography, or light painting, is a technique that involves the use of a moving light source in long exposures in photography. In collaboration with partner TRAKT, the festival invites everyone to the playful Luminography Corner in Porto (OKNA Cultural Centre – Rua da Igreja de Cedofeita 27), where you can discover a different approach to capturing movement. Regardless of your age, you can use moving lights such as flashlights, fluorescent lights, light brushes, or even your mobile device, to “paint” with light and create a single image that expresses movement.
