Phenomenological Vision

This work impressed me so much! I've seen it this summer in Bienal de Cerveira. Inside the dark room, the wires were completely invisible (in the movie you can see the wires). The lighting is done with a simple group of moving light bars pointing to the wire structure.



Inside the room, the light and the movement of the light got into Existence. I saw the light as an object moving. It was moving exactly the same way everytime but in a different way, either in a different color, or direction, or speed. But the pattern was always there.
But that's not all. I said phenomenology because WE could be THAT light crossing the wires. We are not the wires, we are not the light, we are the "light on the wires", we are that repetition, we are each of those moments were the light gets to the wire.
We are not the wires! Our structure is not the structure of the wires!
We are those explosions of light on the wires. The angles of our structure are the directions of that light on the wires. Our structure is the equation of the speed of that light on the wires.
Humans are the need of the "light on the wires" to escape the wires.
