after finding a suitable location, we started this project by planning out where the spotlight and the shadows of our letterforms would be positioned.
we determined that in order to cast shadows the size of the letters on the sheets of paper, the foam board cut outs would need to be about 2/3rds their size.
we also had to compensate for the angle of the lighting by skewing the foam board letters so that the shadows would appear properly aligned.
we used one large sheet of foam board to mount the cut-out letters, and then pinned the board to the correct position on the wall. the final result is that the word "penumbra" is represented in the form of a shadow.
