"We are always on the verge of the next movement, breath, gesture, cycle."
In this series of kinetic sculptures, Therese Lahaie animates glass, demonstrating its affiliations with light, water, and air. Employing an unusual combination of glass, steel, motors, and fabric, the visual vocabulary speaks fluently in the language of the sciences, the natural world and contemplative practice. The mesmerizing waves evoke both seascape and landscape in a subtle erotic dance. The pieces invite viewers to not only look, but to connect to their own rhythms of heartbeat and breath. |
