I have been thinking of making these arches for years, after being inspired by an artwork I saw back in South Africa. The work was built up to create depth, with lights cleverly hidden somewhere in the background that gave the work an atmospheric presence.
This is a short documentation of my own attempt with a slightly different approach. I used pics I took in the beautiful cloisters of the Palais des Papes in Avignon because of their awe-inspiring size and the way light streamed through the meticulously carved arches. The three layers of my work will create depth of perspective and right at the back, a strip of minute lights will hopefully bring a sense of celestial mystery. Enjoy!
