Holographic Light artwork in glass
“Archeology of the future”, is a cycle of Holographic Light Artworks assembled in glass plates, it is focused in Light as a tactile material. Elements such as typewriters, cameras, lenses, newspapers, ancient stone and words are the subjects matter, and serve to preserve culture as a medium of communication, history, and identity. These vintage objects are removed from the oblivion of time; dematerialized in light sculptures, in transition from the age of ‘Enlightenment” to the contemporary age of “Photon”.
The holographic light artworks are made in collaboration with the light artist August Muth in his lab. The Light Foundry, Santa Fe, USA.
Holographic images are just like images of the real world, but without the material. It is purely structured light, tangible and real. Each artwork has different perspectives which change based on where the viewer stands in relation to each piece, creating a dinamic interaction with light. The assemblages of luminous tridimensional objects provoke a visual and cognitive short-circuits surreal, were estrangement and familiarity cohesitin between past and future.
Because the holographic process produces extremely clear images that can hold vast amounts of information, holography’s applications have predominantly been in the fields of science. But since the 1960s, holography medium has also been explored by artists interested in the creative possibilities of images that replicate three-dimensionality and deep space in a two-dimensional surface.
