About the Item

"Susan Dallas-Swann trained as a painter before focusing on the intricate patters of light. Trying to match in pigments the delicacy and intensity that the eye could see she began using light as her medium. Her large and small scale light sculptures use lenses and lamps to create strange and beautiful luminous forms Images projected from the light sculptures are documented as digital prints. She also collaborates with other performers, musicians and artists to create sensory surrounds. Large and small scale indoor and outdoor sculptures, performances and events immerse the viewer real time and space. Measures: 30".

This dawn to dusk event began when the sun turned on a solar switch that controlled the light sculpture projecting an animation that cycled throughout the month. The environment was filled with rainbow colors of light from diffraction gratings on the large windows as the sun moved across the sky. The light sculpture suspended on redwood projected a revised lcarus myth.
