THE LIGHTS of JAMES TURRELL

It seems natural to ask why we are so attracted to the works of James Turrell. The installations of this American artist fascinate us for his psychological and scientific reflections that find harmony in art. What characterizes his works the most is perception, the main and most evident ingredient. In his installations, he just needs to change colors to influence our photoreceptors.

Turrell makes us see things we do not see, with only beams of light he immerses us in colors and makes us understand how imperfect our visual apparatus is; therefore everything we see is relative. Perhaps the very possibility of seeing what we cannot see is the thing that most keeps us glued to the works of this artist.

This strong feeling for colors inspired me in the creation of this second drop of Reload, in which we analyze the field of emotions through the most harmonious shades.
