Integrating geometric line and light, W-inter presents an interplay between light, geometric line and architecture in an immersive, futuristic form of cyberspace. Featuring a field of illuminated linear structures, this large-scale light installation will respond to the gallery site and extend the architecture of the space through line. The work will exist as a hypnotic landscape within the gallery, through the replication of interconnected linear masts.
W-inter creates an immersive experience for viewers, reflecting a pure, minimal and uncorrupted otherworldly space derived from the architecture of the historic building and gallery – considering the site in its past, present and future states.
Meagan Streader is a Brisbane artist currently residing in Melbourne. Constructing site-specific installations, Streader draws visual cues from futuristic and natural atmospheres and systems to engulf the viewer in a sensory experience. Through multifaceted transformations her artworks redefine conventional spaces, objects, and materials. Employing the repetition and replication of light, form, and textiles en masse, her works are realised through the construction of installations, sculpture, video, and soundscapes.
Streader’s recent explorations push the limits of light within sculpture and installation through reinterpretations and extensions of surrounding spaces. Considering sites in their past, present, and future states she investigates the interplay between light, line, and form. These works visualise immersive cyberspaces through the appropriation of architectural and spatial details.
