Prism Flares, 1967

In 1965 Lijn began to fabricate framed wall sculptures using thin acrylic sheets as surfaces and incorporating within the frame numerous small spotlights that were programmed to turn on and off sequentially to change the angle of incident light illuminating the surface.

Sunray, 1967

Lijn was fascinated by the use of prisms as tools for vision in both industry and war. Here were materials which were used both for destruction and creation. Not only that, they were real tools for vision, enabling people not only to see and sight from within bind boxes, but also to see within solid matter by analysing the spectrum of light given off by gases, for example in distant stars.
