Bent Lozenge 1

2021

Bent Lozenge 1 is a wall mounted light installation composed of acrylic and plywood, animated by programmed LED lighting and electronic components that orchestrate a continuous color choreography. The work's distinctive curved rectangular form glows with shifting hues that evolve throughout the day, creating a dynamic interplay between the physical geometry and immersive light. Exhibited at Library Street Collective in 2022, this piece exemplifies the artist's investigation of how artificial light transforms perception and spatial experience, inviting viewers to witness color not as a fixed property but as a temporal, ever changing phenomenon. The work's luminous intensity and controlled geometry suggest both architectural intervention and phenomenological inquiry, engaging fundamental questions about the relationship between light, form, and human perception.
