No. Sourcelight installations are not staged as public events. The work is formed through presence represented by Lumens placed within the field.

A Lumen serves as a stand-in for a person – an object that holds their presence within the installation as part of the larger composition.

Lumens are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis depending on availability. Due to the nature of the installations, Lumens are limited edition artworks that correlate to each specific installation. Please fill out your interest HERE to be added to the waitlist for the next availability.

Sourcelight maintains a two-year anti-flip policy to:

• protect the integrity of the artwork
• ensure stable custodial lineage
• prevent speculative flipping
• preserve cultural authenticity
• maintain consistency with luxury and fine-art norms

All transfers before two years are prohibited and unrecognized by the Sourcelight Registry.

Signature Lumens

• Mark intervals within the official Sourcelight Adsum Installations Artwork
• Define the decentralized sculpture
• Limited to two per custodian per year

Gold Patron Editions

• Awarded through patron programs
• Sculptural objects connected to Sourcelight
• Not part of the canonical Lumen Field intervals
• Recorded separately in the Sourcelight Registry

Both hold cultural significance, but they serve distinct artistic functions.

The Registry documents:

• Creation and material identity of each Lumen
• Interval assignment
• Custodian lineage
• All approved transfers
• Patron edition records
• Conditions of authenticity
• Alignment with the Terms of Custodianship

It is the institutional backbone of provenance.

Luminaries are honored by private invitation only. Sourcelight does not accept submissions for Luminary placement.

Notify the Sourcelight Registry immediately.
The Registry will record the incident, update provenance, and advise on next steps depending on severity, recoverability, and replacement eligibility.

Please click HERE to fill out a nomination form. Your nomination will be emailed to the person you wish to nominate, who may accept the nomination by purchasing a Lumen to be included in the ADSUM installation or decline the nomination.

Lumen pricing varies by edition. Full details are shared upon the announcement of the next upcoming installation.

All Lumen holders are automatically added to the Sourcelight Registry, which is then transferred as your induction into the Archive of Light. Our studio will assist you with your Archive of Light card to ensure all details are correct on your profile.

There are 120 Lumens per installation. Some Lumens are pre-placed prior to an installation announcement, so the number of available Lumens per installation varies. Sign up for our Newsletter HERE to be notified of upcoming installations and Lumen availability.

The Patron Program is a limited tier within Sourcelight for those supporting the work at a higher level of patronage. Gold Patron Lumens are placed selectively. Patron placement is available by inquiry.
