Juha Rouhikoski: RED HORIZON
The Red Horizon investigates the way in which we see light, space and colour, 2009
The Red Horizon investigates the way in which we see light, space and colour. There is a red light behind a hung frame, dispersed by a stretched film into the shape of a horizon and forming a light landscape stretching to infinity. A monochromatic blue light blends the background into the distance while emphasising the closeness and presence of the red horizon.
