The kinetic sculptures and installations of London artist Haroon Mirza incorporate sound, light, and electric current into pieces that retain the rawness of the materials, as well as an aesthetic reminiscent of minimalism and the early work of Frank Stella. Solar Powered LED Circuit Composition 8 acts as both painting and light installation, with Mirza’s elegant composition dictated by the solder, copper tape, and solar panel that fuel the LED circuits. Mirza’s work is well represented in public and private collections, and was included in the 54th Venice Biennale.
