In black crystal with red and blue neon lights, Genesis Light (2006) contains many references to the cosmos and its symbolism, and in particular black holes. The term “genesis”, which refers to the creative process, is also the hallmark of Nanda Vigo’s own private language, founded on esoterism and her quest for knowledge.
The beams of light, which spreads beyond the surface of the object, is one of the signs of her expressive code. The harmony between light and space induced by the reflective surfaces is a constant in her work and characterises her artistic development since the Cronotopo of the 1960s.
