“Back to Light is a creatively scientific series by photographer Caleb Charland that explores the naturally electrifying power of ordinary objects like fruits and loose change. The images in the series features a number of materials, including consumables readily found in one’s pantry, generating enough power to light lamps and LED lights. We had previously seen Charland light a lamp with 300 apples, but now the grocery list has expanded to include oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, pomelos, and vinegar.”

I love when light itself becomes visible. We imply motion as it cascades through the branches.
Eric Cahan | on Tumblr (USA) - Sky Series
Several focal points define the work of New York-based artist Eric Cahan. Among them: light, specifically the light generated by the sun at sunrise and sunset, science, nature, and the ephemeral quality of memories. These considerations are in play when, equipment in tow, Cahan heads outside at a carefully chosen hour of morning or evening to begin creating one of his flawless, ethereal works of art. Cahan himself made most of the work for his current project, Sky Series, during his extensive travels. Each photograph and sculpture is titled with the time and location of its conception. In this way, Cahan catalogues his visual journal. “ During my travels, I discover what I want to document. My works are titled to remind me of the experience, both visually and spiritually.” Cahan’s viewers see in his work his unique interpretation of a specific time and place. Please visit artist’s website or follow his Tumblrfor more work and inspiration.

Caux Collective Redirects: United Visual Artists
The stunning installation you see here was created following an innovative pursuit of depicting time without using any traditional means of measurement. London-based Art and Design practice, United Visual Artists (UVA), sought to create a piece of art which could effectively show the passing of time, whilst also eradicating the need to use seconds, minutes or hours.

I turned the corner and found the most amazing sunrise waiting for me. What an absolutely perfect sky.
James Charlick | on Tumblr - 063.365 : Sunlit Stairs
As part of our epic adventure over the weekend, we visit these old maltings. The central tower features these wonderful windows which frame an even nicer spiral staircase. If you’re extra nice I might upload a second angle of the stairs. Coming soon to my flickr, but in the meantime you can go see where else we visited on the same day!
I love this shot. The natural light made geometric by the windows and the faded spiral staircase. What a beautiful space.
