About The Artwork

This ambitious outdoor work made entirely from luminous fluorescent acrylic was exhibited at the Musée Nissim de Camondo during Paris Fashion Week. Aglow consists of one hundred and sixty-nine hemispherical fluorescent coloured acrylic bowls arranged on the ground in a hexagon shape. The edges of these multiple unplugged fluorescent bowls in six neon colours will glow as if charged with electricity. These 'live' edges and choice of material embodies West's interest in the relationship between colour and light and their ability to enhance the viewers perception of the work. The acrylic bowls offer a highly reflective concave surface enabling spectators the opportunity to see their surroundings in a new (fluorescent tinted) light. The individual bowls also serve as rain catchers, adding an extra dimension to the work and another reflective surface in which to observe the surroundings of the exquisite Musée Nissim de Camondo courtyard in central Paris. Used repeatedly in nature, the hexagon is a practical, economic, space saving polygon. West often utilises geometry and repeat in her installations to create large scale and impactful works.

Liz West is a British artist (b.1985) who graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 2007. West’s broad body of work encompasses wall-based artwork, sculpture, and site-specific installations. West creates vivid environments that mix luminous colour and radiant light. West aims to provoke a heightened sensory awareness in the viewer through her works. She is interested in exploring how sensory phenomena can invoke psychological and physical responses that tap into our own deeply entrenched relationships to colour. West's investigation into the relationship between colour and light is often realised through an engagement between materiality and a given site. Our understanding of colour can only be realised through the presence of light. By playing and adjusting colour, West brings out the intensity and composition of her spatial arrangements.
