Consisting of 30 beads, that have been cast in tin after handmade models and have then been handpainted and connected on a metal string. // Abracaderesalubra by Angela Bulloch is a mixed-media sculptural piece from 2007, featuring a series of 30 brightly colored beads arranged on a metal string. Each bead, unique in its hue and form, has been carefully crafted by casting in tin from handmade models, then meticulously hand-painted. The arrangement of colors, ranging from soft pastels to bold primary tones, creates a playful yet structured rhythm along the string. Bulloch’s work often explores systems and sequences, and this piece exemplifies her interest in order and repetition within organic forms. Produced in a limited edition, Abracaderesalubra balances craftsmanship with an abstract, almost whimsical design.

What is ‘light and space’?
The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
