Description

Gareth Spor's work is inspired by the sense of wonder experienced during the contemplation of a larger order within the universe. While many find contemplating the larger universe to be bewildering, it can also be thought of as a uniquely human experience that breathes life to concepts and forms that would go otherwise unrealized in the parallel universe that is our minds.

In his practice Gareth addresses the internal states one experiences when teetering on the edge of numinous finds. Given his background as a neuroscientist, Spor's preoccupations turn towards the physical implications and manifestation of optical perception. For this show he takes as a point of departure a concern with the filtering of light through vision, taking cues from film as well as systems that enable light to become information.

This show includes sculptures that are interactive or activated by light and accompanying videos.

This exhibition is curated by Marcella Faustini.
