About this artwork
Assemblage with ultraviolet light and cast concrete
Blacklight illuminates phosphor to create an apparently infinite space inside the chamber.
Brudniak further imbues his work with a sense of past through highly worked patina. Limbo, an old refrigerator with a safe deposit box lock and a typewriter on its door, was treated with acid, salt and water and set on fire to achieve a crusty, rusted surface that evokes an old and decrepit chamber. Upon… opening its door, one finds a cement block with a small, rectangular opening covered by bars. Through the bars, a dungeon of blue light is visible—an abyss that represents the mind as it tumbles into the darkness of human anxiety.

« I have come to discern a philosophy for my art, and that is to take the viewer out of the world, to the state where thoughts cease. »
Steve Brudniak is an award-winning and acclaimed American sculptor whose artistic career has spanned over four decades. He has extensively exhibited in the United States and his works are featured in the permanent collections of the San Antonio Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, and the El Paso Museum of Art. Brudniak favors a surrealist approach to his art, conceiving concepts in a subconscious manner. His multimedia assemblages often contain unusual objects and scientific elements.
