Work by Associate Professors Colette Lalibert? and Simone Jones

An exhibition comprised of Associate Professor Colette Lalibert?’s paintings and two wall work projections done in collaboration with Associate Professor Simone Jones. The collaboration originates from a shared interest in pictorial illusion and the transformation of architectural experience that is common to both Lalibert?’s and Jones’ individual work.

Issues of temporality, presence and absence are explored through the juxtaposition of paintings and digital animations that are projected onto the walls and ceiling of the gallery space. This calculated interplay between the tangible and the intangible underscores the tension between the plastic quality of painting and the immateriality of light. In addition, the spatial distribution of the paintings and projections within the gallery space seeks to confound our perception of two-dimensional and three-dimensional space.

Lalibert? and Jones began their collaboration in June 2008 when they were participants in the "Interactivos: Vision Play" workshop at the Media Lab-Prado in Madrid.
