Last fall the Light-Space Art class that i taught at Parsons created a temporary installation that was part of a public program titled Questioning Light which was sponsored by the MFA Lighting Design program. The site specific installation, titled Resonance, examined notions of time and body movement in conjunction with division, as the art work was installed in the middle of the presentation space obstructing movement and view between the two halves. Attendees were forced to pass through the work, presenting themselves in a stage of light and optical distortion.

Resonance is the culmination of the spatial and experiential research conducted in Parsons (http://www.newschool.edu/parsons) Light-Space Art elective. Students collaborated to theorize, design and construct an operational artifact to be unveiled in support of the event Questioning Light, held on November 3, 2016.
