These circular wall sculptures absorb and reflect light, allowing the viewer to visually travel through the composition. Made of painted plexiglass with embedded fluorescent pigments, light and colour are projected through the edges. These easy-to-place pieces punctuate any home with contemporary elegance.

“After twenty years as a painter it occurred to me that light is a medium in and of itself. I began using coloured plexiglass and developed a process of cutting, gluing, sanding, and buffing to alter its levels of translucency and reflectiveness. The way the material imbues colour with volume is especially intriguing. The ability to conduct how light interacts with surfaces is my ongoing attempt to create a visual braille, that is, a language by which colour, light, and composition can be felt and not merely observed.”
