Vanishing Point

Vanishing Point employs perspective as both tool and visual outcome to reshape, redefine and represent a space. Inspired by sketches of Leon Battista Alberti, Leonardo da Vinci, and Albrecht Dürer, the work forms part of United Visual Artists’ continuing explorations into programmable architecture and creating the illusion of light as a physical material. Light draws and constructs different geometries, volumes, divisions, and architectural compositions that emerge from an arbitrary vanishing point. The work’s behavior is unpredictable and without repetition, fluctuating between states of calm and pulsing energy augmented by sound.
