Five years ago I was staying in a lighthouse on Hoy. The lighthouse was situated on the edge of cliff and looking across the sea you could see another three lighthouses. All four lighthouses had a different light pattern. Aside from the stars, it was one of the best light shows I've experienced.
Fast forward five years and I discovered that these light patterns follow a formula. Not only that but because these light patterns help seafarers navigate the sea at night, these patterns are available for every light in the British Isles.
That's 1,159 lights. I used 229 of the lights and lighthouses that cover the coastline of Scotland, Wales and England. This print maps those light patterns over the course of a minute where each ring in the circle represents a second. The lights have been arranged like a compass so the most northerly is situated at the top, the eastern lights to the right and the western to the left. The print is a limited edition of 229. One for each light.
