Experimenting with light- Emma Senior

After going to the Cube Gallery and deciding that I wanted to try and work with light behind my pieces, I have now started to look at other artists that have introduced light into their work. One is Claudia Caviezel who works with pattern.  http://www.caviezel.cc/ I really liked her work with masking tape which she stuck onto windows. I then decided that I wanted a go at this myself which I found really effective. One my patterns were finished I decided to cut shapes out of the patterns to let more light in and looked really effective as what was left was just strips and shapes of masking tape with no over laying which created darker shadows.

  1. Emma theyve worked so well! Hard to believe that it is just masking tape! They remind me of old marble/stone floors. Maybe start looking at stain glass windows?! Or frosting glass?
