AN EXPLORATION OF PAINTING WITH LIGHT | Heidi Melamed creates works that paint with light, for a world where meaning has shifted from the object to the experience. Employing the form of the parabola in coloured Perspex, glitter, and paint, Melamed’s two- and three-dimensional works incorporate light into their surface and disperse it out again. Natural and artificial light spills out from boundaries, expanding and contracting the space between the viewer and the artwork. Melamed arranges a scenario in which the artwork-object is the starting point, colour and light are invited to interplay via these expanded paintings, and ultimately a unique viewing experience is the result.
