The iridescent Dimension: On Magic and Resonant Light

The iridescent Dimension: On Magic and Resonant Light

 

The Iridescent Dimension: On Magic and Resonant Light is a project that explores the essence of iridescence in Greek mythology and natural phenomena, and transposes the alchemical philosophy into the design process to materialise iridescence.

The iridescent layer on the glass is produced by applying chemical substance when fusing glass into a red-hot state in the kiln. The multi-layered surface structure of nacre is transferred on to the cast glass creating curved surfaces. Through the thin-film interference and optical properties of iridescent glass, the surfaces of the glass display structural colour transformations of varying intensity as the viewing perspective changes.
