Justin Lui
"Dragon Scales" - Light and Video Sculpture

2024

About the Item

Dragon Scales is an expandable system of geometrically-surfaced low-resolution LED panels. Cardstock shells are shingled and embedded with LEDs, hiding the LED bulbs from direct view while also diffusing their glowing light. This system of light-diffusing shells combined with pixel-mapped LEDs results in a display system that acts as a 'blurring machine' that physically and digitally applies visual effects to inputted animations, videos, and images. *** SHIPPING WITHIN UNITED STATES $1800 *** ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION FEES FOR SET UP AND PROGRAMMING- CONTACT GALLERY Justin Lui is an artist pursuing responsive media in the physical world, exploring the intersections between media art and architecture, in order to create objects, spaces and surfaces which are dynamic and intelligent. This pursuit is catalyzed by a desire to create a sense of bodily engagement between participant and installation space; so that the body’s sensory mechanisms and its physical location can be utilized to create mutual relationships between people and space. The result can be phenomenological (by evoking certain emotions or internal states of being) and can also be behavioral (how a space can dynamically change and respond when subjected to patterns of human use). While media artists often create work that resides within the given boundaries of screens (small and large), Justin usually opts to explode and re-materialize visual content beyond the constraints of conventional screens. In a world where high resolution imagery has become commonplace, his work often uses the subtlety of lower-res visual content. The materials he uses include LEDs, re- purposed plastic containers, fiber-optic threads, and code. Justin’s formal training was in architecture, and he includes UX (user experience) design, DJing and music production in his mix of skills. Currently based in Los Angeles, Justin was born and raised in Toronto, Canada, and has previously worked in New York City, Toronto, and Berlin. Justin is a graduate of the UCLA Design Media Arts MFA program, and also holds an M.Arch II degree from UCLA Architecture and Urban Design, as well as a B.Arch degree from the Carleton University School of Architecture.

Ebb and Flow - Vertical Blur, LED Enabled Wall Art, 2021
Located in Boston, MA
Artist Commentary: Limited edition lenticular LED wall art held in a rectangular frame. Created with constantly fluctuating patterns and color palettes. Lenticular layers cause 3D visual shifts and changes from various viewing angles. In constant motion, these pieces reflect the fluctuating nature of life itself and humanity’s ability to embrace its unpredictable nature. This collection embodies the shifting patterns and cycles that enable us to continuously grow and evolve, despite the unforeseen circumstances that come our way. My hope is that these works are a reminder that a changing landscape can also be beautiful. May these pieces bring strength and encouragement to those who own them. This work transitions through approx. 40 changing color palettes and can be viewed in both light and dark environments. This rectangular design also has a slot to swap between various lenticular compositions. These additional sheets can be purchased separately, please enquire for more information. Also available in a larger size (25" x 19" x 6") -- Please contact us for further details. Keywords: light, led, installation, Artist Biography: Jasmine Pilcher...
