Light Sentence- Ruby Red 1971

In this 'light sentence' by Laddie John Dill, we see the colours bleeding into each other. I imagine him carefully choosing each hue, and then combining them, in this almost rhythmic repetition of light. I wonder if Dill ever felt like he was conducting light when he made this? There's a distinct pulse to it, a vibrant energy that seems to emanate from each bulb. It's like a string of code, each colour a different emotion or thought, strung together to create a visual poem. And that ruby red, it anchors the whole thing, giving it a sense of gravity amidst all that light. You know, it reminds me of the way Agnes Martin used colour to create these subtle shifts in mood and atmosphere. Artists are always having this conversation across time, you know, inspiring each other, riffing off each other's ideas. It's all just one big, beautiful mess of creativity!
