Beschrijving
De honderd duizendenden bezoekers van de Biënnale in Venetië in 2019 hebben reeds kennis kunnen maken met een opvallend en grote lichtkunstwerken van de Nederlandse kunstenaar Clifton Mahangoe.
Het nieuwe werk en installatie van Clifton zijn een reflectie van gevangen lichtmomenten.
“Tijdens mijn proces mediteer ik regelmatig en maak ik verbinding met mijn innerlijke licht. In verbinding maak ik een connectie met omgevingslicht en de reflecties van de zon en het effect hiervan. In mijn fotografie en videowerk leg ik de gouden momenten van licht in de natuur vast. Deze verbluffend mooie momenten activeren ons onbewuste geheugen. Door te spelen met hun repetitieve patronen, bouw ik werelden van licht die je laten wegzinken in een fijn ruimte van leegte en stilte. Vanaf hier kan dit licht je van binnenuit raken.”
THE LENS REFRACTIONS OF LIGHT – NFT
Specially for this period, when light is needed most, conceptual light artist Clifton Mahangoe showcases his latest light art work at gallery Chez Freddy art & design.
Mahangoe opposes separate worlds and wants to represent the endless connectedness of nature in his work. A physical work of art by Mahangoe will therefore be presented as NFT (Non Fungible Token) during the exhibition. With this first, Mahangoe connects his physical world of light with the digital world of light in the NFT cosmos.
Years in development, The Lens symbolizes the inner reflection of light.
The light artwork is a convex lens with movement and absorbs sunlight. Like previous Sphere Series, the lens series is a new canvas for his digital paintings. While painters use brushes, paint and canvas, artist Clifton Mahangoe uses light from nature as carriers of a message that runs deeper than his own. Mahangoe’s exploration of light as a language pushes the boundaries of visual light art.
Participating artist Clifton Mahangoe will be offering an artwork as an NFT for the first time.
What is an NFT? You might ask. NFT stands for non-fungible token. A unique and non- interchangeable unit of data stored on a digital ledger. NFT’s can be associated with reproducible digital files such as photos, audio or in this case a video.
Mahangoe: We are a part of creating that which we behold. Touching with light, from the smallest molecules of the earth to the patterns in the universe and through technology to the core of our human hearts is a grounding and expanding experience. Light is the most multidimensional instrument I can play with and uncovering the depths of it’s layers technically and spiritually is the essence of my work. It is a passing journey of remembrance and a form of art in service of a the greater good.
