Helena Hietanen's Small Lace 1 & 2 (1997-1998) are a part of her Techno Lace series, a milestone in the Finnish light art history.

As seen in the Tampere Art Museum's Encore! exhibition.

More fond memories of the Venice Biennale 2019 edition, wonderfully abundant in light art: Gabriel Rico's BW 43. Such a brave, simple artwork, spoiled by its unfortunate placing in an invidious corridor limbo.

The artwork in the previous posting was a part of a sub-exhibition Technologies of enchantement , showcasing early female Italian artists of "programming" (in one or another meaning of the word) in the Venice biennale Milk of Dreams in 2022. Very interesting room, to say the least, with artworks from Marina Apollonio, Dadamaino, Lucia Di Luciano, Laura Grisi, Grazia Varisco and Nanda Vigo.
