Luminance Synthesis

Solo exhibition, Industra gallery, Brno museum night, Brno, 2019

The light installation responds to the space of the gallery. Individual objects located in space are inspired by its size, shapes and tectonics. An installation composed of light objects of geometric shapes responds to the movement of visitors. If the visitor come closer, the subject lights up so much that it is almost impossible to see it. Viewers thus directly influence the intensity of light in space. The installation reflects the thoughts about institucional critique and about exhibiting of artifacts in gallery space. The light aspect prevents a closer examination of the objects and the viewer is thus placed in a situation where his activity, so common for the gallery space, is impossible. Objects of geometric shapes are partially automatically generated on a computer and their appearance is defined by a program that determines their appearance, fill, dimensions, etc. Objects are intentionally influenced by 3D printing techniques and do not try to mask this fact and the work directly deal with this aesthetics. This aspect is most visible when the translucent material is illuminated, when the cubic filling of the object is projected on the surface, which is normally completely hidden. The installation is complemented by a sound page, which, together with the lighting of the objects, triggers a sound, which is always created on the basis of a given shape and thus reflects the gallery space, which inspires the objects.
