About this work

This painting is just one solid, bright blue color. No shapes, no lines, nothing else—just a flat, even field of blue. It looks like a blank wall but made of ink. The blue glows faintly in the dark because it’s printed with special ink that lights up. This trick makes the whole piece feel alive, even though it’s completely still. Check out Philippe Parreno to see how he plays with light and space in other works.
