Abstract
I am a sculptor, fascinated by new advancements in science and technology. Although I have worked with traditional media such as bronze and clay, my interest in light and optics caused me to turn to the use of transparent plastics in the early 1960s. This terminated with an exhibition in my studio in 1969, entitled 'Resin Sculpture'. I later became interested in the use of ordinary electric (incoherent) light and laser (coherent) light. In 1973 I presented two artistic environments. The first, entitled 'Color Spaces', employed the colors of the spectrum and a series of cubicles to reflect each hue; the second, 'Colors' Encomium', involved colored electric lights with associated sounds, reflective Mylar (Dupont metalized plastic film) and my dance performance. In my artistic environments of 1974 I utilized laser light: 'Light in Space I', in which four columns in a darkened room were illuminated differently by two beams from a helium-neon laser, and 'Light in Space II', in which many curtains of very thin plastic film were employed to diffuse the beam.
