condenser black

Mouans-Sartoux, Concrete Art Center, 2003

The work is composed of a cube and a square black monochrome.
The cube is placed exactly opposite the black paint. The square is
the projection of the cube on the plane of the wall. The cube is made up of 4 faces of diamond frosted glass.
It sits on a white painted canvas. The frosted glass diffuses
the influence of the white paint. The black paint absorbs the diffusion of frosted glass
This reinforces the ghostly appearance of spectators silhouettes projected on the cube faces.
There are no artificial light.
