Ugo Rondinone sparkling light, 2023
Painted bronze
530 x 625 x 366 cm
Edition of 3
sparkling light is a large-scale bronze sculpture painted in dayglo yellow, depicting a bolt of lightning. Rondinone started the series of these massive lightning sculptures in 2023.
Painted in bright, dayglo color, the bronze light sculpture represents the crooked and rhythmic lines that form strikes of lightning, creating a tangible and static representation of these miraculous experiences and awe-inspiring phenomena. As the viewer moves around the sculpture, its form continually changes based on the viewer’s vantage point.
