Cerith Wyn Evans: Forms in Space… by Light (in Time)
Interesting light installation at Tate Britain by Cerith Wyn Evans. In the large Duveen Gallery, this work consisted of a series of sculptures in neon lights forming a drawing of light in the air. It works whichever way you approach it, with a small circle of light, followed by a series of distinct shapes and ending with a great swathe of lines. You can either walk towards the complexity or away from it. It did make me think of dance notation and patterns and the commentary confirmed that movement and dance was one of the themes. It would be interesting to see it when the space was darker and quieter as I think it would work better. The host of people heading to the Hockney exhibition currently makes this a very busy space which fights with this rather busy work.
