HI-LIGHTS is centered on the radically adaptive reuse of a seemingly familiar infrastructure. Rethinking the highway light poles as dots that form letters and words, and modifying their repetitive and equally-spaced placement into a sudden concentration, HI-LIGHTS will put the Gold Coast’s name in lights through two unique works at the city’s busiest entry points. Featuring nearly 100 highway lights and poles, closely spaced at different heights, the lights will appear to spell out the city’s name in the northern installation and feature the letters GC at the southern site.
