- Picturing Light, which is a follow-up to Picturing Space (2019), is an exploration of the many manifestations of light. The exhibition brings together the work of fine artists and photographers, and exhibition, textile, and interior designers who respond to natural and artificial light. The specific focus is on work that makes light its primary subject matter, not just as the means to reveal other content. Some of the work explores the visible spectrum scientifically. Other pieces create environmental experiences through controlled lighting.
- The exhibition is organized into four major categories:
-
Natural Light—projects that use natural light to illuminate the work and cast shadows and transparencies;
Artificial Light—installations with projections, neon, video, lasers and other light sources;
Reflected Light—using materials such as iridescent paint, mirrors and dichroic film to reflect light; and
Depicted Light—paintings, films and photography which shows the effect of light.
Picturing Light is curated by Anne Finkelstein, adjunct assistant professor of Spatial Experience Design. - Rights
