PERCORSI – Marinellia Pirelli

MARINELLIA PIRELLI – Percorsi, 2006
Transparent perspex cube with laser-made cuts.

“The white light shines through the cube engraved by laser-cut marks and projects a kaleidoscope of multicolored straight lines onto the wall. It’s a work in itself, but also the model for a larger object that I would like to realize for placing it in a semi- darkened setting but the material itself, which consists of 2-cm-thick methacrylate plates, could impose limits. I chose this particular size by chance,but then I discovered that 30 cm is the distance traveled by light in about a billionth of a second.”
