Sandra Muss illuminations

Illuminations, an exhibition of work by artist Sandra Muss that explores the mystical qualities of light, will be on view at Artscape Lab, Miami, Florida. The exhibit focuses on her use of light in a diversity of media.

The simplicity of a tube of light can transform spaces and shapes into magical entities and the properties of refraction and reflection further enhance her message of transcendence. Once a romantic notion derived from ancient mystical notions of light, in the secularism of the modern world, its transformative powers take on a new meaning, while never losing their potency and spiritual relevance.

Muss looks beyond the science of light combined with references to industrial materials for a new aesthetic that goes beyond minimalism into a more phenomenological one. It is this phenomenon of combination, physical and conceptual, that is the basis for the work in the exhibition.
