The formations of multicolored light in “Spectral Wave” emerge from the precise interplay of light and water: designed by physics, translated by the artist. Sunlight meets the water’s surface at an exact angle, focusing into luminous bands and simultaneously dispersing into an array of colors. These rainbows reflect from dark lava rock back to the waves above, where they stretch and segment into glowing forms. This piece captures the artistry of physics and its ability to define everything around us.
