Lighting a porcelain sculpture in a temporary installation requires a thoughtful approach to highlight its delicate details and artistic essence. Start by assessing the sculpture’s texture, glaze, and form to determine the ideal lighting angle. Soft, diffused lighting often works best to avoid harsh shadows and glare, while directional spotlights can emphasize intricate features. Consider using LED lights for their cool temperature and adjustable brightness, which protect the porcelain from heat damage. For a dynamic effect, experiment with layered lighting—combining ambient, accent, and backlighting to create depth. Finally, test the setup in the actual exhibition space to ensure the lighting complements the sculpture’s surroundings and enhances its visual appeal.
