Installation Art Application

Acrylic tubes and rods have become one of the most widely used materials in installation art due to their transparency, lightweight nature, and durability. Artists take advantage of the plasticity and optical properties of acrylic tubes and rods to create modern and visually unique art pieces. Below are some common applications of acrylic tubes and rods in installation art:
1. Light and Shadow Effects
Combination with Lighting
Acrylic tubes and rods can effectively conduct light. When combined with LED lights or other light sources, they can create dynamic and changing light and shadow effects. The refraction and scattering properties of the light add a strong visual impact to the artwork, particularly in nighttime or low-light environments. The light transmission effects of acrylic tubes can lend a sense of mystery and futurism to installations.

Illuminated Installations

Acrylic tubes and rods can be used to create illuminated art installations, using different colored lights to create varied atmospheric spaces. For example, some large public art installations use colorful acrylic tubes to transform a site into something resembling a flowing river of light, making it highly captivating.

2. Interactive Installations

  • Light and Shadow Responsive to Movement
    Acrylic tubes and rods can be combined with sensors to create interactive art installations. For example, as viewers approach, the lights inside the acrylic tubes can change color or brightness according to the distance, allowing them to engage with the artwork and enhancing the sense of participation.

    Sound and Light Interaction
    Acrylic tubes and rods can also be integrated with sound technology. When sounds are detected, the lights in the artwork will flash or move in response, creating an immersive audiovisual experience.


  • 3. Environmental Art
    Outdoor Public Art
    Acrylic tubes and rods are weather-resistant, making them suitable for long-term outdoor displays. Many artists use them in urban spaces or natural environments to create large outdoor installations. These works exhibit different effects during the day and at night, adding an artistic ambiance to public spaces.

  1. Integration with Nature
    Acrylic tubes and rods can also be combined with natural elements, such as being placed in forests or water bodies. Through the reflection and refraction of light, they create a contrasting beauty between natural and artificial materials, blurring the boundaries between the two.


  1. The application of acrylic tubes and rods is not only about their material properties but also about the limitless possibilities they bring to artistic creation. Through innovative use of light, shadow, structure, and space, acrylic tubes and rods enrich installation art, adding interactivity and a futuristic feel, making them an essential element in modern artistic creation.

What is Acrylic (PMMA) ?
Acrylic is called "polymethyl methacrylate" Poly (methyl methacrylate), referred to as PMMA, also known as plexiglass. It has the reputation of "plastic crystal" and is often used as a substitute for glass. 92% light transmittance, good weather resistance, easy to machine, can be adhered with chloroform, and suitable for various painting and printing (suitable for acrylic materials).
Acrylic Material properties and benefits?
The water absorption rate of acrylic is 0.3%. If the acrylic material absorbs too much water, it is prone to foaming during thermoforming, and it is also prone to cracking and appearance deformation during printing. If it is stored in a humid environment, it will affect the expansion and contraction of the product. If you are very demanding on dimensional tolerances, it is recommended to store it in a dehumidification chamber or vacuum treatment. SMEACRYLIC has nearly 100 pings of dehumidification warehouse space to store all kinds of plates, which can avoid the damage and deformation of the plates due to the humidity of the environment.
