Hyper Diffraction Works II and The Coronas
June 2 – July 4
Installation of neon works viewed with diffraction grating glasses for a wild 3D experience.
My work is about light – neon, diffraction, holography. Sliding back and forth with video, installation and sculpture, my objective is to promote a swelling of the senses and to identify fields and forces around objects. My current research looks at extra sensory perceptions; psychometry (the spirit of objects) and tetrachromacy (the fourth cone).
The Coronas are a new body of neon work. Spanish for crown, corona also refers to the plasma around the sun. These pieces are in a shape akin to Lichtenstein’s 1962 “Viip” painting or 1967’s “Explosion.” They are based out of a recurring drawings about exciting ideas or events.
