“Light is not so much something that reveals, as it is itself the revelation.”
James Turrell
Pantheon in Rome
Olafur Ellisasson Little Sun Solar Light
Light has been referenced symbolically for centuries. Revered as God sent. Art, architecture and words proclaim its majesty, tries to capture its power as firefly in jar.
James Turrell ‘Sky Space’
But light has no use for this. No interest. Entity of its own, it comes and goes, existing with and without us. Frolicking amongst the chiaroscuro landscape, it leaves us a lesson we rarely learn.
…be the light.
