Trans-Light-Formations: 1 min video

PICTURING LIGHT - artists explore luminosity (curated by Anne Finkelstein)

An exhbition of artists and designers who focus on light as subject matter, material or muse. 

Trans-Light-Formations is my largest installation to date. I modify our chromatic experience by filtering lightwaves with color transparencies which manipulate light. The vinyl adhered onto the window panes slows down lightwaves resulting in velocities decoded by our eyes as colors. I add another layer of transparency with upcycled CDs and plexi CD cases generously sourced from MaterialsForThe Arts.org, allowing viewers to admire both the complexity of the morphed landscape and objects behind them, and to be astonished by light as matter.

New York Artists Equity Association
245 Broome Street - New York, NY 10002

New York Artists Equity will be featuring one of my works. In As Luck Would Have It, different transparent materials weave into each other producing unexpected colored intersections. One of these intersections contains a transparent red die that casts its luck. Two acrylic tubes are also woven into this piece as well as two painted lines - one blue, the other red - suggesting a possible reconnection.

In my work for the Queens Botanical Garden, incidental sun light traverses color transparencies projecting shadows on to the ground. Patches of color intensify or fade depending on the sun’s intensity. Participants can bathe in colored light and transform themselves under it. I am inspired by the transcendence of stained glass and the versatility of assemblage. Hand stitching brings these traditions together and evokes the realm of feminine expressions of the past.

Project developed as part of AnkhLave Garden Fellows program. By presenting artists and art-making in a nontraditional setting like the QBG, AnkhLave aims to promote BIPOC artists who represent and reflect the Garden’s visiting audience.

This project is made possible by the Queens Council on the Arts with public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the New York City Council.
