Light Theory #2

The Art

Through "Light Theory #2," viewers are invited to immerse themselves in a realm where imagination knows no bounds, where the urban landscape becomes a canvas for self-expression and introspection. It is a testament to the power of art to transport us to extraordinary realms and provoke contemplation about the interplay between light, architecture, and the human experience.

The Artist

Shannon Black explores the extraordinary within the ordinary. For over 30 years, the New Zealand-born, California-based artist has refined a process of layering imagery and light to uncover the quiet, essential stillness that lives underneath the noise of the world.

Her work—spanning vast landscapes to dense cityscapes—is characterized by a natural solitude that emerges through rich, dark color and cinematic texture. Rather than a conscious goal, this haunting serenity is a reflection of the world as she sees it: a friction between the physical environment and the internal landscapes we carry. By documenting the beauty in decay and the passage of time, Shannon creates dreamlike scenes that invite viewers to connect with the unnamable feelings found in moments of true solitude.
