About

Carlo Bernardini was born in Viterbo in 1966. His is a form of creativity that works on the basis of a code of modifications in space reflecting variants produced by light. So much is confirmed by the present research of Carlo Bernardini, who handles light and shade like materials and substances, using electro-luminescent surfaces and optical fibers with internal lighting in a context of total darkness.



In these works with interior and exterior environmental light installations, the optical superimposition of lines traversing a space and lines running along the planes of the same space, viewed from a certain position, can produce two-dimensional visual conditions.
Closing one eye, transforming it into a single lens, the image becomes two-dimensional; as soon as the viewpoint shifts volumetric changes come about, generating mirror image-forms.
The first impression is not of the optical fibers themselves, but rather of transparent plates of glass lit up along the sides.
The optical fibers only reveal the empty space they enclose in a subsequent phase of perception.
The observer can enter into a sort of illusory space, experiencing the installation from within and without.
