Waterlight Graffiti is a material composed of several thousand LEDs that illuminate when in contact with water. Resulting from a simple idea, the goal of Waterlight Graffiti is to propose a new reactive material to draw or write ephemeral luminous messages in urban space.

Waterlight Graffiti is the result of the discovery of Dishu during a trip in China. This practice consists in painting calligraphies on the ground with water. By dint of seeing luminous billboards in the street that imprint our retina, Antonin Fourneau has imagined a new kind of interactive surface offering the public an alternative to the sad urban billboard and a new way of expression in the public space. This creation is also a tribute to the Etch a sketch of the French inventor André Cassagnes who, through his invention, had also proposed a new surface of expression.
