Parenthetical Light, Aged Bronze, Sculptural Wall Lights, by Force/Collide

About the Item

Parenthetical Light is a sculptural wall light trio, finely constructed and finished with fabricated silicon bronze and light to create tension through form. Largely referencing surroundings that overwhelm with emblems, graphic cues and architectural signals, the piece contorts space outward and back again in sustained call and response. Dramatic shadows and abstract shapes act in counterpoint; a deep spectrum of tones is brought out with a hand finished patina. When Parenthetical Light is turned on, the glow of light from the three hand-finished, sculptural silicon bronze sconces radiates warmth and throws dramatic shadows that change as the sun sets. When left off, the sconces are less than dormant; a rich, high-finish patina radiates a deep spectrum of tones in natural light through the geometry of faceted bronze. Futuristic angles and abstract shapes play off each other and change throughout the day to give life to a room. Ideal for a modern or contemporary space, these wall lights are designed simultaneously as a sculptural and functional work. Timeless and sleek, Parenthetical Light includes LED filament-style bulbs for maximum efficiency. Parenthetical Light was originally designed and fabricated for an exhibition at Bellevue Art Museum's Biennial: Metalmorphosis, along with work selected by a distinguished national jurors of 49 metalsmiths from the Pacific Northwest. A professional art handler and electrician is recommended for installation (not included). Artist is available for hire to install within the United States.
