THE BON-FIRE / WITHIN – WITHOUT.

a pile of small LED panels is lit – like a campfire, at the entrance to the show.
it ‘burns’ so bright, it seems to be a reflection, of a real fire outside – on the deep Chinatown street.

LUKE MURPHY, ‘Untitled Pile’, 2018.
29 x 45 x 45 in. / LED matrix panels programmed by the artist.

‘EVERY PIXEL BRIGHT’, “CANADA’S fifth exhibition by LUKE MURPHY, presents a new series of digital sculptures comprised of LED matrix panels / programmed by the artist. Murphy continues to mine and re-purpose these humble screens, finding new possibilities in them and perhaps seeking an absurd entry into the Sublime – with cords and hardware exposed.”
