Chain A 2:1:30:5 2004

Angela Bulloch made ‘Chain A 2:1:30:5’ out of wood and coloured light. It’s all about the glow, that subtle shift of colour and the way the light bounces off the floor. The colour is the thing, right? How it changes the mood, makes you feel something different with each block. It reminds me that art isn't always about what you put on a canvas; it's about the whole situation you create. You can almost feel the heat radiating from the yellow light. Bulloch’s work makes me think about Dan Flavin, but with a playful, modular twist. Flavin was all about those readymade fluorescent tubes, creating these immersive, almost spiritual spaces. But Angela takes it somewhere else, adding this element of system and sequence. It’s a conversation, really. They’re both dealing with light and space, but in their own way, pushing the boundaries of what art can be. Art keeps evolving, remixing, and responding.
