About this artwork
In the Zeno series, Lisa Fromartz experiments with the expressive properties of light. Referencing Maholy-Nagy's Light Prop Sets, she projects light through her sculptural assemblages of metal, found objects, plexiglass, and translucent vinyls to create compositions of color, form, and shadow. The sets are photographed and further developed digitally. Working with the luminosity of translucent materials and the projections of continuous tones of light and shadow, Fromartz combines painting, sculpture, and light into work that is finally enhanced by the medium of the lit video screen.
