Carlos coronas: color and light

In fashion is art that relies on color and light. "Unimaginable territories" is an extensive color and light installation by the Spanish artist Carlos Coronas, consisting of several sculptural objects, which are closely intertwined structures made of wood and fluorescent lamps. Each sculpture has its own color scheme, besides, the artist “animates” his objects, giving them “breath” - they rhythmically change the brightness and intensity of illumination. This is achieved through a system of electronic pulses - all sculptures are tightly braided with thin wires. The exhibition project was opened in the Oscar Niemeyer Cultural Center (Avilés, Spain). Carlos Coronas was born in 1964 in Aviles. In 1989 he received a bachelor of fine arts from the University of Salamanca. Mostly works as a sculptor, creating objects from wood and lamps.

Coronas says his objects are like living organisms. At the same time, their “behavior” is consonant with the emotions of the spectators - this is both excitement and joy, sometimes anxiety or, on the contrary, reverie.

General view of the installation “Unimaginable territories”. Coronas objects change their brightness rhythmically, becoming like living organisms. Each object is a complex interweaving of electrical wires, wooden slats and fluorescent lamps. Each sculpture has its own color and light, which are projected on the walls and floor of the exhibition space. Objects are placed on special low podiums. Podiums have a reflective coating that creates an even greater effect of immersion in the exposure. Some sculptures are exhibited separately. The darkened interior creates the necessary “field” for the installation of the Coronas. The installation "The unimaginable territory" - a single sculpture, united by a common artistic conception.

The “Unimaginable Territories” project is available to the public until October 2, 2016.
