Installation documentation; oil paintings on canvas, red and blue filtered floor lamps, wall, light, and spatial arrangement

“This installation view documents a key moment in the development of Threshold. Rivulet and Nexus are installed with coloured ambient light, allowing painted colour and environmental colour to act on one another. The room becomes unstable: red and blue shift the wall, alter the paintings’ temperature, and make atmosphere part of the work’s structure. Rather than treating the white wall as neutral, the installation tests how light, edge, surface, and distance can shape perception before the image is fully understood.”
