Biosmos, 2007

The work is composed of suspended phosphorescent crystals, concentrated to the centre of the space, allowing the viewer to walk around the space. This intricate suspended installation is combined with subtle movement and sound.Biosmos is an illusionary manipulation of the space that involves the viewer in a physical and sensory experience. One is left to meander amongst intriguing specks of light that seem to energise the space. The work appears to defy gravity in its weightlessness and ethereal beauty, appearing to escape from a galaxy-like hole in the floor. It appears to linger like a cloud, each single entity swaying in meditative harmony with the next, sound seeming to resonate from their collective motion. The mind wonders whether these are tricks of the eye and ear in the play of darkness. The work momentarily distorts the perceptions of space and time, leading the senses on a hallucinatory journey. It recalls the sublime and physics of energies, forces and motion at play.
