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.
