‘With artists like Rothko and Newman and the painters and sculptors of the 60s, light was very much part of the conversation. I grew up with the notion that paintings create light, that picturing light was really important. As my work developed, I wanted to make paintings that created light, not natural light, but an artificial light. One usually thinks of a divine or sublime force as dazzling. So, if it’s artificial light that dazzles, it’s a little perverse in a way that I like’
(P. Halley, quoted in K. De Jongh, P. Lodermeyer & S. Gold, Personal Structures: Time Space Existence, Cologne 2009, pp. 276 – 281).
