In Rainbows plays further with the notions of planetary movements, the sun, and time. This piece takes the idea of a sundial one step further by allowing the 12 sliding elements forming the clock-face to become individual conduits of refracted light. The elements gracefully rotate as they move, changing the emitted colours with every angle and position in new and surprising ways.

In Lignum is the first in a series of playful wall-mounted sculptures inspired by early human observations of planetary movements. This piece invites viewers to linger and observe the generating patterns which are formed by 12 hand-carved wooden blocks that are drifting across the surface. Generative patterns are constantly evolving. Eventually, they might align and tell the time.
