In Radiant Alchemy, the artist has removed fluorescent tube lights and fixtures from the gallery’s ceiling and has placed them on the floor. The lights have been covered with a rolled copper sheet, a material that is known to contain and conduct heat. By covering the light and letting the heat manifest itself, Aoun is interested in showing light as heat — light as something we can feel rather than see. The work becomes a visual and sensory experience of the transformative power of radiant heat beyond the boundaries of visible light.
Both installations in the main spaces become diagrams of temperature. They both continuously transmute through thermodynamic forces and transfers of heat, enabled by the space itself. They become live sculptures that mirror the conditions of the space, water in the air, heat from the light, bring awareness back to the most essential matters of our lives.
