Los Angeles County Museum of Art

California Light

The "Pacific Standard" exhibition at LACMA was a comprehensive survey of light-based artworks created by artists working in or influenced by the American West Coast.

Suspended Neon was installed in the museum's grand atrium, where the work's floating configuration created a dramatic centerpiece that could be viewed from multiple levels.

Spatial Dialogue

The suspended configuration allowed the neon tubing to interact with the California sunlight streaming through the museum's skylights, creating a dynamic interplay between artificial and natural light.

This environmental approach reflected the artist's interest in creating works that acknowledge and celebrate their surrounding architectural context.
