// Untitled: (Castor #1 & #2) by Claire Fontaine, a 2013 archival print, captures two thermal-like images of a cargo train in transit, displaying the containers and surrounding environment in intense hues of blue, green, yellow, and red. In the left panel, silhouetted figures appear near the train, suggesting observers or perhaps protesters, while the right panel focuses on a single container with a vivid heat signature. The thermal imaging effect draws attention to themes of surveillance, containment, and environmental or political issues associated with transporting hazardous materials. Fontaine’s diptych invites viewers to reflect on the hidden risks and societal implications of modern logistics and monitoring.

What is ‘light and space’?
The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
