Photographer ANDREW CAMPBELL turned a sharp eye to the parliamentary triangle on Wednesday night to photograph a preview of this year’s Enlighten light show ahead of its Friday night opening… then he went back for more.

Enlighten illuminations will again light up the national institutions, showcasing Australian culture and storytelling through projections by some of the country’s most exciting contemporary artists.

Throughout the festival, the facades of Parliament House, the National Library and the National Gallery will be transformed.

Parliament House will honour 12 women who fought for a more inclusive democracy through Alison Alder’s I am a New Woman projection, celebrating Australia’s role in granting women the right to vote.

At the Museum of Australian Democracy, Chloe Chinyere Akole’s A Date with Democracy will project illustrations on the facade of Old Parliament House.

The National Gallery will feature Lindy Lee’s 100 Flowers Falling with cosmic imagery and ancient Zen symbolism.

Meanwhile, Matthew Aberline’s The Guardians at the National Library celebrates Australian wildflowers through immersive, inflatable structures.

Ryan Presley’s Inferno at the Portrait Gallery challenges traditional power structures with animated vignettes of resistance and survival.

Questacon presents Mystery Mosaics, an interactive experience where visitors can contribute to digital Lego projections, uncovering fun, science-inspired mosaics on the building’s exterior.

Enlighten illuminations 8pm-11pm nightly, until March 10.
