Light Action: light/CONCENTRIC
2007

72 fluorescent fixtures, 30 sodium vapor fixtures, aluminum pipe, speedrail fittings,
conduit, junction boxes, conduit clamps, digital relay switches, computer control
9’ 7” x 10’ 3” x 60’

Made possible by a 2007 Downtown Artist Project Grant

Continuing her formal, conceptual and theoretical investigations into light as subject, this new body of work looks to material to determine scale.

Distilling her piece light/CUBED to its essential iteration, light/CONCENTRIC consists of 6 cubes ranging in size from 18" up to 8' -
one cube for each length of T12 fluorescent fixture currently still available.

This work marks a significant shift from her site specific pieces while continuing her interest in defining interior and exterior volumes of space with light,
using both the lights themselves as well as the light produced to physically build with light.
