enlighted® by Janet Hansen

Cortney Clabaugh

Enlighted was commisioned to light up a bodysuit for trick rider Cortney Clabaugh and matching accessories for her horse. The positions of the lights, controls, and battery packs were carefully selected to optimize durability and to ensure that they do not impede any of her acrobatic movements.

All pieces are illuminated with RGB LED pixels hand-stitched to fabric base layers and covered with sheer sequin fabrics that allow light to pass through while concealing the wiring. The lights are programmed in a variety of animation effects and colors that can be selected before each performance.
