David Ariew’s abstract work is shaped by his medium of choice: the infinite mirror room. A pioneer in adapting this concept to 3D, Ariew uses the unique capabilities of 3D animation to create the illusion of a finite physical space paradoxically extending to infinity through its reflections. His works explore the dynamic tension between physical boundaries and endless repetition, offering viewers a glimpse into an intricate, surreal realm.
The exhibition delves into the theme of infinite light and reflections; selected works traverse tranquil, geometric universes filled with golden light. These abstract creations invite contemplation, their unfolding patterns and meditative movements revealing a sense of calm and balance. Ariew’s artistic language subtly incorporates spiritual symbolism, encouraging visitors to reflect on the connections between light, space, and the sublime.
The powerful golden light and endless reflections create a visual echo of staring into the void, yet it is a void softened with warmth and light. With their serene unfolding details, these mirror rooms provide a moment of introspection and healing, where the viewer is both grounded and transported.
