die bewegte Linie
2020
In the work "die bewegte Linie", two fine strings of light simultaneously light up to form a cross, which in the next moment, appears to be tilted by 45 degrees. The work is created by the interaction of the light situations, which induces our brain to perceive more than just one illuminated cross. As with all multi-stable phenomena, subjectively there is always only one alternative. An ambiguous, apparent movement emerges, a perception of movement where there is none.
