This artwork explores the natural cycle of circadian rhythm through a dynamic interplay of light and colour. Shifting on the hour, every hour during daylight, the installation mirrors the full spectrum of sunlight from dawn to dusk. From the soft, warm hues of sunrise to the vibrant midday blues and the rich ambers of sunset, each transition reflects the ever-changing quality of natural light.
Dawn to Dusk aligns with the body's internal clock and highlights the importance of receiving the right wavelengths of light throughout the day, essential for mental health, well-being, and maintaining a balanced sleep-wake cycle. Designed to subtly influence mood, energy, and perception, this installation reconnects viewers with the rhythms of nature, emphasising the unseen forces that shape our daily lives.
Commenting on the unveiling, Frankie said: "With 'Dawn to Dusk,' I wanted to create an immersive art work that mirrors the natural flow of our daily lives. Light is not just a physical phenomenon, but something that shapes our moods, health, and connection to the world around us. This installation invites viewers to rediscover the subtle power of light, reconnecting them to the rhythms of nature that often go unnoticed in our busy lives."
This artwork was created in collaboration with Guy Gold, an esteemed osteopath, to highlight the essential connection between light and well-being. Just as caring for the body is vital for overall health, so too is understanding the role of light in regulating mood, energy, and mental balance. By presenting these elements side by side, the installation reinforces the idea that light is as fundamental to well-being as physical care, encouraging a deeper awareness of its impact on daily life.
