The artwork, titled “After Green,” was created by James Turrell in 2003. This piece is part of the “Wedgeworks” series and falls within the “Light and Space” movement. It is an installation genre artwork, emphasizing the phenomenological experience of light.
“After Green” is a visually striking installation that immerses the viewer in a transformative space defined by luminous hues and geometric forms. The artwork features a dark backdrop juxtaposed with a radiant rectangular area, composed of interlocking planes of glowing red and subtle hints of purple. These luminous planes create a sense of depth and spatial ambiguity, encouraging observers to engage with the boundaries and perception of the light. Through this intricate play of light and form, Turrell explores the interaction between light and the visual perception, encapsulating the core principles of the “Light and Space” movement.
