Inspired by electromagnetic waves, I wanted to express the complexity of light and its thousands of applications into our world, or more thoroughly, the thousands of ways light is continuously finding to express itself. Specifically, I chose the chameleon as an example of a lizard which gives way into ultraviolet lighting for survival purposes. Additionally, taking advantage of other natural elements like eggshells, banana skins, olive oil, honey and tonic water, which have the same reflective properties, I decided to combine the two into an integrated creative arts project. More specifically, I draw a chameleon and to its body I attached the before mentioned elements in order to display the natural phenomenon using an ultraviolet light torch in an overall very dark environment.
