The Sun Catcher and The Light Painter
Light Interventions is a durational installation that explores relations between light as material and the environment. Washes and fragments of light and colour glow beyond the edges of sculptural materials and objects to activate the surrounding architecture, creating spatial cycles of movement. The viewer's encounter with the work is affected by quotidian factors; the time of day/year and the weather. Colours and shapes change in parallel with fleeting patterns of activity, the path of the moving sun, the transition from day to night, and the passing of clouds. Light constructs and deconstructs.
My sculptural installations integrate into the cyclical and daily movements of architecture, buildings, places, and observers. I am interested in how duration can embody the past, present and future within the transitional nature of the external environment. This practice performs temporality through light density, colour exchanges, and shadowed forms. Layers of movement are embedded into my artistic process through making time, colour and light observations, sculptural intervention and presence.
