Walking through the British-born, Belgian-based artist Ann Veronica Janssens’s latest sculpture show makes one aware of just how many dazzling ways light can refract. Some works at the gallery, Alfonso Artiaco, large-scale yellow-green planes that lean against a wall, shimmer iridescently, like oil slicks. Another work, a
Blue Glass Roll 405/2 (2019) a large, blue-gray ring that radiates light softly like the surface of a frozen lake—on close inspection one can spy small bubbles of air trapped within the sculpture.
