As installed 285 x 29 x 8 cm $ 250 each as displayed (includes template, paint + LED torch) The holographic works for me are not just a record of the ‘interference pattern’ created when the beams of laser light interfere on the holographic surface. The resulting hologram stands in place of the ‘departed object’ recorded by the holographic surface, and preserved through the developing process. The bands of light and dark act as an extremely sophisticated diffraction grating, so that when light passes through the plate, it interferes to form the exact image of the object and scenario that was recorded. Viewing the hologram at different angles with the portable LED light source will give a different view of the object, thus giving it its three dimensional appearance. |
