Lucida (I-VI)
Lachlan Turczan
Lucida is the latest work in American artist Lachlan Turczan’s ongoing Veil Series, where he invites viewers to step into spaces sculpted entirely from light. These luminous curtains ripple through mist, forming shifting environments that blur the boundaries between the tangible and intangible. Light, typically a fleeting presence, takes on a material permanence, transforming into something that can be touched, inhabited, and felt. As participants move through the beams of light, their presence activates the work. Light bends, flows, or solidifies into structured planes, responding with fluid dynamism. By giving light the qualities of physical matter, Lucida hints at a future where form no longer relies on physical mass, but instead on energy and perception. These spaces, dynamic and ephemeral, possess a profound sense of reality—one where light itself becomes structure, creating an environment that feels both otherworldly and immediate. Light, here, is not just seen—it becomes the very architecture of experience.
