Installation of light and ice | Teamwork with Lisa LOTITO
One facet of beauty is that it is ephemeral,
for example, the flower is made more beautiful by the fact that it is seasonal.
To demonstrate this quality of beauty, a box made of black, brilliant plexiglass in large-scale format was created.
The box contains fifty-four shelves made of transparent plexiglass, each of which showcased a single cube of ice.
The ice cubes contained crystals, which were illuminated by a light installation within the box.
With time, the ice melted, and the installation became a water feature.
Photography of ice, light, and prisms further highlight the transient nature of beauty.
