The DNA of light

The DNA of Light is a collaboration between Paul Heinrich Neuhorst, a highly skilled lighting designer and artist, and Ilka Henkel, a versatile artist and technical consultant with an impressive international exhibition portfolio. The dynamic duo ventures into a realm of art that defies conventional categorization. The images challenge the preconceived notion that art consists of computer-generated images. Instead, the essence of light is utilized by breaking it down into its spectral components, much like a prism or a rainbow. The artistic process mirrors that of traditional painting, where mixing the colored components of light is similar to mixing paint on a palette. Adjusting the intensity of red, blue, green and their combinations becomes a choreography of hues, similar to a choreographer staging a dance. The subsequent creation of sculptures, backdrops and decorations further enriches the narrative. These elements are then illuminated by the carefully composed colored light components. The results of this intricate process are visually stunning images of a brilliance that defies convention. The interplay of color, light, reflection and mirroring forms a mesmerizing symphony. The images represent an art form that is completely original, innovative and deeply complex. Here, light is not just a tool, but an essential medium, equivalent to the artist's craftsmanship. It stages a dance of colors and light contrasts, a choreography of visual splendor. Although this art form is firmly rooted in the contemporary abstract and playful world, it retains a connection to reality through its study of nature.
