In Rundal, the arrival of neon lights marks a remodernization of visual culture. Where hand-painted signboards, folk motifs, and ecological hues once shaped the night, a synthetic glow now takes over. Neon is both aspiration and spectacle- it reshapes how streets are perceived, how festivities feel, and how identity is expressed. Rather than erasing tradition, it overlays it, creating a hybrid visual language where the rural night becomes a stage for modern desire and inherited memory to coexist.
