NEON

“After Glow” (Red), “Hopscotch” (Yellow), and “Go Play” (Blue) are three six-foot neon sculptures that glow with an aura of playful and luminescent radiance. The neon bunnies are lambent lonesome lodestars, navigating through the three-dimensional repertoire. Larger than life, the Hunt-esque rabbits stand erect like facetious chaperons of this new Hyper-Wonderland.

With the acknowledgment that his iconic bunny forms are larger than life, Slonem’s new neon light sculptures are intended as a playful reinterpretation of his beloved rabbits. Each unique work in this exhibition is comprised of a custom powder-coated aluminum cabinet and delicate 12mm Italian neon tubing. For dramatic effect, hidden LED halo lighting is mounted behind the cabinet to create an ethereal glow.

“After Glow” (Red), “Hopscotch” (Yellow), and “Go Play” (Blue) are part of the upcoming “HUNT SLONEM: Through the Looking Glass” exhibition opening on Jan 22, 2021 at New River Fine Art.
