Aurora IV
Aurora IV is a vibrant composition that bathes each photograph on the accordion books in warm color gradients that are digitally printed on Japanese paper. In all of my works in the Aurora series, I paint the back of each piece with a fluorescent neon red that reflects and glows against stark white walls. For me, this color calls to mind both the natural – the pinkish-orange light of dawn – as well as the highly artificial – the neon orange of traffic cones and hazard tape.”
