Il termine deriva dal latino “lumen”, che significa letteralmente “oggetto che diffonde luce”, ma in una accezione più ampia serve ad indicare la festa dei lumi. Pali di legno, fili di ferro, scale, lampade servono a costruire, a “montare la festa”.

While retaining some peculiarities, each country has a characteristic that unites these rituals: the illuminations. The term derives from the Latin “lumen”, which literally means “object that diffuses light”, but in a broader meaning it serves to indicate the festival of enlightenment. Wooden poles, iron wires, stairs, lamps are used to build, to “mount the party”. The “figures” incessantly repeat the same movements, they struggle, using the eye to measure, transforming the spaces.
