About The Artwork

Light flows symmetrically in gentle waves over the cylindrical body of LIGHT\TRACE No. 7, creating fine traces of light. Subtly, the transparent fibre optics, drawn into a two-coloured fabric, emit their light into the room. As the light in the surrounding space diminishes, the cylinder seemingly dissolves so that only the curved lines of light are recognisable. The cylinder of LIGHT\TRACE No. 7 is the support for the fibre optics that emit their light over its surface and are located precisely in the space between reflection and absorption because the fabric is two-coloured. The metal coating in platinum gives the inside of the light object apparent coolness and reflects the light, but on the outside it is deep black so that it becomes invisible in dark surroundings and absorbs the light. Looking into the light object from above reveals very interesting perspectives for the viewer that achieve very different effects in making the space in between visible, depending on the angle. The black lacquered base of the cylinder, from which the fibre optics grow at the edge, is cambered so that it blends harmoniously and softly into the surrounding fabric and delicate construction. The interplay of lightness and optical resolution determines the lighting effect of this object. Inspired by Art Nouveau, the waves of the fibre optics contrast with the modern material of the fabric.

Creating a magical poetry of light with subtlety is the challenge of every light object and every light installation of my light artworks. Because the desire to work with spaces and, above all, to breathe atmosphere into them is my greatest motivation. As an light artist, coming from design and interior architecture, I combine art, architecture and design in my projects. A play of translucency and lightness begins with every object in the material. I love creating volume with light without obstructing the view. I break the light down into its individual parts and put it back together again: The sun and LED are the light sources, the fibre optics are transmitters and the material becomes the body. Using the light in a subtle way so that it leaves delicate traces in interior spaces is made possible by the manually processed fibre optics, which form the heart of each handmade light object. In the objects themselves, this creates a sparkle, a dance, a magical interplay of lightness and translucency. In 2015, I founded ATARA design. As a German artist and designer, I live and work in Vienna, the city that constantly inspires me. I love to travel for inspiration, especially to faraway countries. Transformation is my central theme here, because combining different techniques and materials from different areas and cultures and placing them in a new context has fascinated me since my childhood.
