Jorge Pardo

The various light sculture’s job is to deploy and perpetuate differences of color relationships through all their individual parts. The lights move around space as people move around the space. Each lamp is not just a lamp, it is an independent set of color relationship. The lights are a machine with infinite vectors when combined with viewers movements. In other words, the colors relationships along with people are the work.
