Candles Flicker

Candles Flicker

Material & size: Oil on Canvas, LCD screen embedded, plexiglass, 60” L x 48” H (2012)

This painting was intended to be a “practice painting” to study the water effects and the effects of light. Because there was no intense intellectually challenging concept or taking on the weight of the world to re-imagine technology, as featured in previous “Alternative Energy: Emergence”, I got to relax.

Description: Inside the church, candles flicker. Inspired by gothic cathedral, the viewer stands at the hall ending in a praying chapel. The video on repeat is of over 33 candles flickering ever so gently in the Cathedral breeze.
