秘鲁出生的美国艺术家Grimanesa Amorós在她的职业生涯中利用光线这一媒介创造了沉浸式的巨型雕塑，使观众能够思考他们的文化遗产、社区和与科技的关系。在Amorós的艺术中，过去与未来相遇。

她童年对光线的迷恋始于她家乡利马的海岸。浩瀚太平洋的汹涌水域会形成彩虹般的泡沫雕塑。Amorós观察着泡泡的膨胀和收缩，仿佛在呼吸，这为她后来作品的形式决策提供了灵感。

Amorós将自己的作品描述为“与未知的永恒浪漫”，她首次将光线纳入她的创作中是在一次命中注定的冰岛之旅后。在那里，她看到了北极光，并意识到光所具有的强大而短暂的魔力。她谈论了光超越社会和地理界限的能力，说“我们都与光相连“。

Amorós从重要的文化遗产和风景中汲取灵感，并受到她所创造社区的启发。她在现场安装和编程每件作品，直接与周围建筑进行互动是创作她作品的关键。“最终，这件作品将观众、空间和灯光雕塑联系起来，将它们融合为一体。”

简·法弗（Jane Farver）写道：“Amorós拥有一种愉悦和慷慨的精神，她将自己的艺术视为送给他人的礼物。” Amorós通过光的媒介连接了美国、欧洲、亚洲、中东和拉丁美洲的不同文化和观众，她曾是2014年TED全球会议的嘉宾演讲者，并参与了美国驻外大使馆的“艺术在使馆计划”。

Amorós在美国、欧洲、亚洲、中东和拉丁美洲等地展览过作品。她曾是2014年TED全球会议的嘉宾演讲者，也是“1993年NEA视觉艺术资助奖学金”的获得者，同时还有幸成为“美国大使馆艺术计划”和Civita Institute NE分会奖学金的杰出成员。

Throughout her career， Peruvian-born American artist Grimanesa Amorós has harnessed the medium of light to create immersive monumental sculptures that engage visitors in contemplation of their cultural heritage， community， and relationship to technology. In the art of Amorós, the past is meeting the future.

Her childhood fascination with light began on the shores of her homeland in Lima. The tumultuous waters of the immense pacific ocean would create iridescent sculptural foam. Amorós sites watching bubbles deflate and inflate, as if breathing, for the formal decisions in her later work.

Describing her work as a “constant romance with the unknown”, Amorós first incorporated light into her practice following a fated trip to Iceland. While there, she saw the northern lights and realized the powerful ephemeral magic light held. She discusses light’s ability to transcend social and geographic boundaries “we all connect to light.”

Drawing upon critical cultural legacies and landscapes, Amorós is inspired by the communities she creates within. Installing and programming each piece on-site, direct interaction with the surrounding architecture is key to creating her work. “Ultimately, the piece connects the viewers, space, and light sculpture, merging them into one.”

Jane Farver writes, “A joyful and generous spirit, Amorós views her art as a gift to others.” Amoros has connected cultures and viewers through the medium of light in the United States, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America as a guest speaker at TEDGlobal 2014 and as a part of the Art in Embassies Program of the US.

Amorós has exhibited in the United States, Europe, Asia, Middle East, and Latin America. She was a guest speaker at TEDGlobal 2014, a recipient of the ‘NEA Visual Arts Grants Fellowships 1993 ’, and has the distinction of being part of the ‘Art In Embassies Program of the U.S.’ and the Civita Institute NE Chapter Fellowship Grant.
