WORLDS OF COLOR

July 16th, 2021 - September 26th, 2021

An interactive, experiential exhibit on color is going to take up the majority of the summer months at Lightforms Art Center. This color installation will create a magical and educational experience for all ages, a memorable submersion into the multifaceted world of color. Four color/light experience rooms invite the visitor into a full surround color immersion. In these spaces one can become color itself and let it in through all one’s inner and outer senses. The color qualities of each room can be contrasted by the next, opening up the total nonverbal language of each color to the other and an understanding of their essence.

Lightforms has invited artists who have worked with color for decades as painters, installation and projection artists. Renowned installation artist Judy Pfaff brings us into the world of red, with an installation called corpora that is based on the heart and blood, as well as several green installation pieces that “convey a feeling of being immersed, of not being on sure footing”…artworks exploring “juxtapositions and color relationships that accelerate each element, so it becomes vibrant…” (Judy Pfaff).

  Finnish projection artist Sampsa Pirtola and painter Laura Summer draw the viewer deeper and deeper into the mystery of the color blue, while Martina Angela Müller’s installation undulates with living rivers of gold and silver into a contemplative world of purple.

In the front gallery Daniel Mullen, a new art sensation from the Netherlands, invites us into large scale three-dimensional spaces of weightless luminosity with paintings that play with geometrical, optical illusion, spatial perspective and light.
