About

Art by Tait B Simonson

My work explores the transformative power of light and its profound impact on perception. By combining architectural design with the artist's hand, I strive to create immersive, site-specific installations that redefine and alter spaces, turning them into experiences of heightened awareness and wonder.

Light serves as the central medium in my practice, shaping environments that engage viewers directly. Through the interplay of light—both natural and artificial—and simple, responsive materials, I aim to provoke a deeper connection between the viewer and their surroundings. My installations challenge perceptions, revealing how light interacts with architecture to transform spaces in subtle yet dynamic ways.

Each piece invites individuals to experience the environment uniquely, shifting their understanding of what the space was and what it has become. The altered character of the space creates a dialogue between the familiar and the extraordinary, offering viewers an opportunity to see, feel, and engage with a 'new place' shaped by light.
