Revelation In The Light
Light is not so much somenthing that reveals,
as itself the revelation.
— James Turrell
The American artist James Turrell considers light as a powerful, primitive substance, in which our existence, physical and psychic, is revealed. Light is connected to life and plants are the creatures that are the most sensitive to this creative power, seemingly imperceptible. The intelligence of plants is fully demonstrated by chlorophyll photosynthesis, the magic of chemistry capable of turning carbon dioxide into nourishment, releasing oxygen, a welcome waste product.
