BRUSSELS, BELGIUM.- Think.21 Gallery presents Arnaud Gerniers Chapter 1, on view through November 17, 2007. A primary and fundamental light, suppressed but yet forcing its way through a well of darkness, vibrations of life and colour that sculpt the space and draw forms, those are Arnaud Gerniers’s devices, which fascinate by their immateriality and beauty.

Of a hypnotic efficiency, Gerniers’s devices strike first with the seeming simplicity of their installation: a confined architectural space, a single source of light and nucleic shapes with a black core from which escape circular halos diffused with different colours. However, retinal and metaphorical discomfort settles, stimulated by the containment of the installation and the vibrations, although deaf and elusive, of the luminous rays.
