Ihe
Ihé is a series of works where I explore the interaction between different Lights sources,
for instance white leds, rgb leds, lasers, etc, and media such as glass, optic lenses,
dichroic filters and other kind of filters, to create exquisite abstract "light
paintings".
The inclusion of motors in the systems provoque a constant change in the configurations
created, designed to be imperceptible to the rush glance of the viewer, that becomes
apparent on a more detailed observation.
Phenomena such as diffraction, refraction and reflection are involved in these delicate
arrangements.
A significant part of the material used in these compositions has been rescued and
repurposed from old electronic devices, giving new life to beautiful objects that would
have otherwise ended up in landfills. My aim is to raise awareness of this issue and
encourage reflection on our current position and relationship with nature.
Following, you can find videos and photos of the different works of the series. Bare in
mind that videos and photographs do not correctly depict artworks which include the use of
Light; In this sense, reality is much more interesting than what you will see here.

Ihe LH
Ihe LH incorporates the frame of a
Laser Harp on its
structure. This way, the glass pieces used to manipulate the Light of the lasers, is at
the same time triggering sounds, creating therefore a Light / Sound / Movement
Installation.
Ihe LH is a work in progress and is being updated week after week. The sounds used in the
installation can be changed in order to be suitable for different circumstances by
request.
Again here has to be said, the light of the lasers has very particular characteristics,
and is very difficult to capture on camera. In this sense, the pictures are much more
illustrative than the video.
