I like your blog and the links you give.
Thanks! Spread the word –
Nice images…
But what is it? How does it work?
I’m curious
It’s projections of light onto a wall, in architectonic forms; the angles of the projections are worked out so that depth perception kicks in and then space appears to be receding into the wall in front of you – but it’s just light, at the right angles, sequenced. A four-dimensional film, so to speak – via a flat surface. Or: space as film (light: projected). Illusions thereof.
everything is ‘just light’…
in this case, the spectrum modulated to effect various grades of white–using light to project the simulation of shadow, i.e. the absence of light.
