Light Cycles - New Collection


Light Cycles are contemporary kinetic light sculptures, projecting flowing, filtered compositions of light onto the wall. Visual meditations on the fleeting nature of life; constantly shifting, never repeating itself.

If you are not familiar with my work, scroll down for an introduction and a visual journey of each piece in this series.

“Welcome to my work…

… in this world of constant transition;

a web of particles, physics, time and light.

There are wondrous gems hiding,

and it is my quest to discover them,

through the act of surrender,

and release of control.

Maria Vera

I invite you to slow down…

*

And take a few minutes to observe the four Light Cycle sculptures in this series. It takes a moment of presence to be taken along, like a visual meditation.

Scroll down and turn on the sound in the video’s to complement the experience.

Jonathan (about Adrift)

“I’m very pleased with it. It’s moving so naturally, so slowly. The colours look like Brazilian precious stone.”

Jenny (about The Empress)

“I am deeply touched by your work, they look like music.”
