While visiting Luca Pozzi’s latest exhibition, “U-Drawings,” I found myself thinking about the ideas of the Hungarian artist and theorist György Kepes, particularly his essays in Language of Vision (1944) that describe light as a “creative medium,” capable of creating “a fresh sense of space.” Pozzi’s new work explores how light can be employed in the process of drawing, and also how drawing can be used a tool of awareness.

Starting in Italian Art History and ending in Loop Quantum Gravity, Luca Pozzi is a product of his background. Working across science, nature and philosophy, the Milan-based artist cites Renaissance artists Tiziano and Leonardo Da Vinci, Mantegna, Tintoretto and De Chirico, Lucio Fontana, Gianni Colombo and many more as influences. That’s while collaborating with the likes of electronic engineer Janick Simeray on levitating sea-sponges in ‘The Star Platform’ and exploring the infinite potential of drawing using experiments by Professor Nicolas Gisin, responsible for teletransporting a photon in 2003, as a jumping off point.
