Aluminum door, transparent bulbs, mirror // Iván Navarro's There is Hole in the Spectacle (2006) is a mixed media sculpture that utilizes an aluminum door, transparent bulbs, and mirrors to create an optical illusion of infinite depth. The artwork, resembling a functional door, is transformed into a portal-like structure with rows of illuminated bulbs reflecting endlessly within. The interplay of light and mirrors creates a captivating visual effect, drawing the viewer into a seemingly infinite tunnel. Navarro’s work often explores themes of perception, power, and social architecture, and this piece challenges the viewer’s understanding of space and reality. By manipulating light and reflection, Navarro evokes a sense of mystery and invites contemplation about the nature of perception and the spectacle of visual experiences.

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.
