Senses Lights – Look & See

2.500,00 

Sight is the second sense in the sequence as sight already focussus on the things that are in front of us. Once we hear a sound heads will turn to see where it came from. Looking at an object is a deliberate action. Seeing the object goes even further, one focuses on the surface, the shape, the colour, size, distance. Next we combine this with what we have seen before, connect it to memories or create new ones.

Description

Senses Lights is a series of six Illuminated Conceptual Art wall sculptures, each built around one of the word pairs at the heart of the Senses Project: HEAR&LISTEN, LOOK&SEE, SMELL&SCENT, TASTE&SAVOUR, TOUCH&FEEL, LEARN&KNOW.

The six works are ordered deliberately, from the most external sense to the most internal. The series begins with hearing, which reaches us from the world at a distance, and ends with learning, which is a process that happens entirely within. Moving through the series is moving inward.

Consistent with Steit’s broader practice, the work prioritises idea over spectacle. All of the the six works use the same structure, the different senses used have different emotional responses. The request is to go a level deeper, think further, look ahead. There are no wrong answers.
