After studying Jenny Holzer at university back in 2003, I became interested in the idea of art as a graphic communication. Previous to this, I had viewed art as a self involved pointless media and something in which I personally could not engage with.
The work of Jenny Holzer enabled me to view art as a communication tool in a similar way to graphic design. Her work was recently been on display at the Lightbox in Woking, Surrey. The piece BLUE PURPLE TILT, 2007 which was created especially for the Artist Rooms collection, was a inspiring and visually stunning piece.
“PURPLE TILT, 2007 is a 4m high light installation with panels each measuring 3810x137x1270cm creates an impressive visual presence in the double-height main gallery”. Well worth a visit.
