Chris Wood
Gloaming - Large Dichromatic Glass Sculptural Wall Artwork on White Metal

2023

About the Item

Chris Wood’s "Gloaming" is a captivating kinetic light sculpture that plays with transparency, reflection, and the fluidity of color. Using precisely arranged dichroic glass elements, the artwork radiates an ever-changing iridescence, shifting hues depending on the viewer’s angle and ambient light. The concentric circular design draws the eye inward, creating a mesmerizing sense of movement and depth. The artwork is signed on the back and can be installed with the circular movement facing any direction. Perfect for collectors of contemporary light art, optical illusion pieces, and interactive minimalist sculptures, this piece transforms its surroundings with a dynamic, ethereal glow. Chris Wood uses a range of high and low-tech optical materials to harness patterns of light that suggest ephemeral glimpses of moments in the natural world. Her minimalist sculptures are simple arrangements creating kinetic patterns in response to the environments in which they are placed. The artist uses a material called dichroic (meaning “two color”) acrylic, which was developed by NASA in the 1950's. Dichroic acrylic has a special optical coating meant to reflect certain wavelengths of light while letting others through, creating beautiful projections of light and color depending on the environment in which the artwork is placed. This large 60-inch square sculptural artwork is created with meticulous attention to light and shape. Dichroic acrylic is fastened to the white fabricated aluminum panel in patterns that change depending on the light. This artwork is signed by Wood on the back of the aluminum panel. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and International shipping options. This artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery. Wood's kinetic artworks change depending on the environment in which they are placed. Under different lighting circumstances, her work can project varying colorful shapes and patterns. This artwork can be hung in any direction, allowing it to bend and filter light in unique and beautiful ways. Chris Wood was born in 1954 in Newcastle.
