Artwork description: These optical devices depict two nautical scenes, the first, a sailboat traveling through a channel, and the second, a large industrial ship passing and dwarfing a lighthouse. The images act as windows into a particular place in time, placing one in the midst of a sea-going world. The devices utilize 2D imaging combined with the optical mirroring, shifting, and transparent effects of cast prismatic glass to create the illusion of 3D space. A type of 4D viewing is obtained as one begins to consider changes in light, a narrative of memory and time, or simply the back-and-forth motion of the body uncovering the images. The two works reference old optical glass devices in lighthouses known as Fresnel lenses. The images consider consumption, nostalgia, and the vastness of the open horizon.
