On Wednesday, August 5, Constructions of Light—an exhibition by Colombian artist Danny Esquenazi—opened. The show explores the relationship between geometry, color, and perception through a series of works that transform wood, acrylic, and light into visual experiences that shift with the viewer’s movement. These pieces expand space and reveal new ways of seeing.
Esquenazi’s work stems from precise construction. Each piece is the result of a meticulous design process in which scale, repetition, and numerical control shape structures that seem to defy the nature of the material. Yet, this technical rigor does not limit the experience; on the contrary, it allows light and color to generate depth, movement, and a constant sense of change.
In Constructions of Light, color does not merely accompany form; it transforms it. Layers, planes, and the play of light alter the perception of volume, creating compositions that exist somewhere between the physical and the intangible. The work comes to life in the eyes of each visitor, who completes the experience through their own perception and journey through the gallery.
The exhibition invites reflection on art’s capacity to transform the perception of space and matter. Constructions of Light will remain open to the public until August 25, offering the opportunity to discover a body of work where technical precision and visual sensibility converge in an immersive experience.
