Reuben Lorch-Miller -- Fluorescent Lights
fluorescent lights acrylic sheeting, audio equipment, hardware, speakers, cd, sound, 3" x 7" x 50", 2000

Both objects in this piece contain a speaker. Played through each speaker is a recorded sound track of me imitating the electric hum created by fluorescent lights. The sound track runs infinitely.

Simplicity

I like this work very much. It is simple, hidden, light-giving and sound-producing all at the same time. It rather reminds me of my second husband. He was all of these things, yet incredibly rich. It seems, too, that Reuben Lorch-Miller knows how to make a work rich in meaning, yet subtle in display. Simplicity, here, it seems is elegant, and elegance is what the world desperately needs in droves.
