Cerith Wyn Evans

Neon works by this artist are on display in New York. The neons “drawing in space” are arranged in space so they layer over each other and create interesting patterns which vary depending on where you stand in the room. All the neons were white to the naked eye but colors varied in the photographs. A very interesting addition was sound through tiny speakers on a glass plate described as follows

1 piece of toughened low iron glass, 1 stainless steel hanging basket, 1 channel audio, 1 speaker (audio exciter, 32 mm type, 30 W, 4ohm), 1 amplifier (smsl), 1 audio player, clear audio wire and 1 mm stainless steel cable)

The artist says the neons are inspired by Frank Stella’s black paintings (one example in gallery below).
