is an architecturally-trained artist and designer. His work revolves around illumination and the creation of visual affect, utilizing a hybrid of analog and digital techniques to craft ethereal experiences that celebrate the perception of light, color, and the passage of time.
A heightened emphasis on light means Ethen’s work is able to flit between the tenets of art, architecture, and design, existing in a state of synthesis that he describes as more of a New Age Craft than any singular discipline. His process often resembles textile weaving, if one were to replace thread with copper wire and electronic circuitry. Ethen’s work suggests that art is an individual’s unique aesthetic experience, a dance which exists primarily in the mind of the observer.
