Astrid Myntekaer

Museum of Contemporary Art, Roskilde

In recent years Myntekaers work has concentrated on light as working material. She examines how light makes the world visible to the human eye. She is fascinated by the duality of light as something tangibly and at the same time illusory. She tries to unite the physical and real with the transparent and imaginary. Light has the ability to condense, intensify and dramatize the experience of the world and by doing so it makes the illuminated more present and emotionally relevant. Its ability through its illusory but yet real existence to manipulate and transform spaces visually and architecturally is the take off for Myntekaer's environmental light settings. For Art Room she presents the work Lover, Loner, Loser for the first times to be displayed in public. She uses UV lighting as medium.
