Diego Del Duca

Diego Del Duca is an experimental artist based in London. He has worked with a range of different media over the years, from traditional paints to algorithmic art, from metal wire to film photography.

His main oeuvre consists of abstract images created by manipulating and projecting dispersed white light.

My starting point for the light paintings was trying to reduce visual art to its bare essential: pure light hitting the eye of the observer. Until I find a way to paint straight onto the viewer's retina, I'll have to make do with playing with photons and capturing their impressions using digital sensors and photographic film.

There is something ethereal and inexpressible in seeing the sublime colours distilled from pure white light. And it's that exquisite feeling that I am trying to evoke with my art.
