Abstract

The carbon neutrality goal requires citizens’ awareness and participation. Public art attracts audiences to spread awareness by intervening in urban space, which is conducive to the visualization and receptivity of abstract social issues. This article introduces the light art installation “Arctic Melting.” It gives citizens an immersive and interactive experience of the impact of carbon emissions on Arctic glaciers. Twenty-eight viewers’ scores and 15 citizens’ comments were collected. Results show that this installation brings good visual attraction, sensory experience, aesthetic appreciation, and conceptual thinking. This proves light art installations effectively enhance citizens’ awareness of important social issues such as carbon neutrality.
