MARION BORGELT: LUMINOUS VOID

LUMINOUS VOID, Sep 27 - Nov 3, 2019

 

Planet earth is surrounded by the most theatrical of backdrops-a magical display of infinitude in whose darkness the lights of dying stars reach us millions of light years from their original source. Such drama of exploding stars and gaseous infernos eventually fades and expires, morphing finally into something else, somewhere else. Artists and philosophers alike have drawn inspiration from the magnitude of the heavens and the esoteric nature of time and here in Luminous Void we see some tiny threads of their influence in the intensity of colors, the layered darkened backgrounds and the evolving, shifting forms and shapes. The cosmos is an alluring, beckoning subject.
