Sophia Chilton’s practice consists of immersive and contemplative light-scapes that can be shaped in response to the environment in which they are displayed. She does this by manipulating light, projecting her abstract paintings on and through numerous translucent and transparent surfaces. Sophia experiments with the materiality of light and uses it as if it were a tactile medium. Sophia welcomes the viewer to interact with the projections by using gently shifting imagery, often produced by her own hand, inspired by the movement of light itself.
