Light Painting By Brian Matthew Hart


Light Painting Photography is becoming more and more popular each day. Also known as light drawing or light graffiti, light painting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made usually at night or in a darkened room by moving a hand-held light source or by moving the camera. In many cases the light source itself does not have to appear in the image. This performing arts was born in the streets, now set off boom in the world.
American light painting artist Brian Matthew Hart has developed a new series of works. Using light beyond its practicality, Hart sets up living scenarios for which he applies the photographic technique, capturing domestic and whimsical scenes drawn mostly in reds, yellows and greens. Each these light drawings can take 6 to 17 minutes and some of the paintings consist of hundreds of individual photographic exposures.
Brian explains how he captured this painting. In his own words, “open the shutter in a dark room—no lights on—then for this one, 3 of us sat in a circle and tossed these small blue led frisbees around for a few minutes. After that we used these tiny pin led to trace ourselves. After we’re done drawing, we close the shutter”.
His most recent series of paintings called ‘Illinois 4′ was conceived, arranged and drawn in collaboration with Dena Pickering on the night of October 15th, 2011 in a western-Illinois attic.
