Sculpture Incorporating Electric Lights

The author discusses her work with art objects using electric lights for illumination either from within an art object or as visible parts of an object. This type of work is called ‘electric light art’ or ‘light art’.

She describes the way she was led to make these kinds of works, gives details of their construction and comments on their aesthetic qualities. She concludes with the hope that architects will arrange for collaboration between lighting engineers and sculptors of electric light art in order that lighting in buildings will be done in a more artistic manner.
