The giant sculpture of Genghis Khan by Dashi Namdakov in Marble Arch is illuminated using fittings supplied by Light Projects. The 5m tall statue captures the legendary leader wearing Mongolian armour on his steed and was commissioned to honour the warrior on the 850th anniversary of his birth.
Due to the complex nature of trying to illuminate such an intriguing piece along with previous bad experiences, Halcyon Galleries approached lighting designers DHA Designs to conceive a more exciting and innovative lighting scheme. They specified different fittings from Light Projects to uplight the plinth and upper parts of the statue.
