One: all that we can see, 2017
neon light with 95% painted black, electrical components
40 x 40cm

The neon light borrows its ratio from the hypothesis that dark matter and dark energy make up 95% of the universe, leaving only 5% of ‘normal matter’ visible

White White (summer and winter solstice), 2017
neon light, electrical components
70 x 100cm

This light borrows its shape from two curved lines found on a graph in a study on circadian rhythms. The graph indicates the difference in intensity and duration of daylight on the winter and summer solstices. There are two different shades of white neon, cool and warm, to correspond to the winter and summer lines on the graph

Somnograph (Spring and Autumn Equinox), 2020
Neon light and electrical components
115 x 16cm

‘Somnograph’ is a pair of neon lights, the linear forms of which were generated by using a sleep app. The app recorded the various depths of my sleep across two separate evenings, the Spring and Autumn Equinoxes, and represented the information as graphs.
