Trancemission

The visual experience of a

candle is taken apart and

rearranged to draw attention to the

sensual trance of the encounter.

A metal wire with resistance has

the ability to glow when

electricity runs through it. The

metal in a candle holder can

therefore be a vessel for

light just as wicks and wax.

Through a looping of a fan turning

on and off the hot wire dims or

lights up, respectively. The

placement of the wax has shifted

and taken up the language of tiles

with ease while still melting from

the heat of the candle.
