Blue Moon

4 km of silk thread attached to two sheets of acrylic glass with 10,000 knots A hanging sculpture that consists of nothing but silk thread - and light: a white sphere is embedded in a blue block of vertical threads. The sphere is a photogram that has been cyano-printed into the body of silk threads. Cyanotype is a photographic printing process which produces shades of cyan-blue. ‘Blue Moon’ takes this process into the third dimension. Saturated with the light-sensitive solution, the originally white sculpture was exposed to sunlight and has thus been ‘printed’ by the sun.
