Installation Art Exhibition Saiyah #2.3

FOLDING and [UN]FOLDING LIGHTS in the empty space. Installation by Yoko Seyama

During the Unfolding Kafka Festival, the Berlin based Japanese artist presents, for the first time in Southeast Asia, an art installation Saiyah #2.3, where light folds and unfolds to continuously modify the surrounding space in various hues of colors. Her clever use of physics principles transformed into an artwork beautifully gives light a somehow more tangible quality.

The white light is splitting into two colors. When it is projected on a spectral glass plate, it transmits only a specific color frequency spectrum. At the same time, the glass plate reflects the remaining color frequency spectrum.

While the four glass plates are turning, the relation between the transmitted color and the reflected color changes. Several color compositions keep evolving by remixing the divided light source and create a live color performance of FOLDING & [UN]FOLDING LIGHTS in the empty space.
