//Video triptych (silent)//
An exploration of light in it's purest form; created by aiming small led fixtures into a glass bowl of water and filming the resultant caustic reflections cast onto an adjacent wall. The use of water as a reflective surface modulates the light with an almost playful cadence; it dances and flitters, ever evolving. At times, distinct forms seem to manifest individual to each viewer's perception, changing the function of the piece to a kind of light based Rorschach test.
Exhibited at the Anita Traverso gallery Melbourne as part of Globelight-a light based art festival curated by James Tapscott and Sam Mitchell-Fin.
One sunny afternoon as I test equipment, my daughter Piper decides to perform a spontaneous piano recital. She explores the keyboard as the notes ring out in gleeful confusion. Pleased with her efforts, she moves on to play in another part of the studio.
