Maybe it's just me but I don't quite understand the question and don't see a latter.

Do you want to illuminate the wall or just the letters?

The idea is to iluminate the wall and by defult the letters but y moving the lights to the side or up and down but the result is the same, see the image attached.

 

Thanks for the help.

Change your light to one where you can adjust the direction.  It would probably NOT be a recessed light but something that hangs below the ceiling.  Because your lettering is so tall - almost the full height of the wall - you probably will not find any really good solution.   The light will really have to be a pretty good distance to be effective.  (Have you learned at all about lighting?)

 

^^ I think that points you towards a different solution.
