I make light look three dimensional and mix color in space.  Light itself looks like something that can be touched and even inhaled.

Lara Knutson – MATERIALIZED LIGHT PAINTING 

With the MATERIALIZED LIGHT series I make light look three dimensional and mix color in space. This work is created by a 3D Light Discovery that I made while I was finishing my master’s degree in Industrial Design at Pratt Institute. In person, it looks like there are 3D Halos of Light floating in Space. As the viewer moves around space, objects create pulses of otherworldly light and sometimes even make rainbows. People are transported and curious trying to figure out what they are seeing. The different phenomena created and technology used allow for a broad range of work from miniature to massive scales. Nothing is static or fixed; everything is immersive and experiential as the surfaces are playing with volume and our eyes’ perception.
