'Light Ballistic Ensemble 01'
Perspex, french enamel, silver powder, fixtures
7 units each : 25 x 25 x 6 cms : 2000
An ensemble in constellation format of 7 four layer perspex sandwiches with a positively curved outline. Layer 3 contains a circular insert painted in spirit dye and silver powder as if glimpsing a telescopic view of a distant sky. Layer 2 has lead splashes embedded as a retinal layer of ballistic light.
This unit recalls the retinal impact of photons of light during an astronomical observation. The whole is experienced again as a machined artifact.
