Liquid Light
Sesame is proud to present Liquid Light, an exhibition exploring the world of underwater aesthetics through the work of four contemporary artists: Sarah Harvey, Patsy McArthur, Oliver Wilson, and Kim Yeon.
Like a deep-sea dive into the unknown, Liquid Light ventures below the water?s surface to where light and form bend and distort, to where the figurative becomes abstract. Prior to 20th century imaging and diving technology, this underwater world could only be glimpsed, not documented, and despite occupying such a key space in the popular imagination it remained barely represented throughout the history of art. Liquid Light sets out to depict the imaginative power of this world through artists whose work merges traditional forms of art production with advanced sculptural and photographic technology.
