Memory Light uses items normally associated with creating sound to be the holders of light.
A metal mesh on the ceiling held fifty one elements hanging down 3.50 m on strings, wires and cables, twenty four of them acting as points of light. Three motors kept a few objects in constant rotation and a big ’70s disco light flashed while three televisions remained on, in a loop.
In addition, a 3 x 3 metres wall, below, was composed of sixteen mirrors, six lenses, three lights and a record player constantly moving, on top of a pair of human legs.
Memory Light was created and installed onsite, and commissioned by a private sound art venue in Leake St tunnel in Waterloo, London.
