John Armleder’s untitled artwork uses disco balls to explore light, space, and a kind of off-kilter glamour. There's something about disco balls that’s both gaudy and mesmerizing. Each tiny mirror reflects and refracts light, turning the surrounding space into a dazzling spectacle. Armleder's arrangement isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about creating an environment, a feeling. The way the light dances on the walls, the interplay of shadows, all contribute to an experience that’s both visually stimulating and subtly disorienting. It's like being inside a kaleidoscope, where the world is fragmented and reassembled in endlessly shifting patterns. Armleder's work reminds me a little of Dan Flavin’s fluorescent light sculptures, where the focus is on the interplay of light and space. Both artists invite us to reconsider our relationship to the built environment and to find beauty in unexpected places. Ultimately, art is about asking questions rather than providing answers.
