Sarah Meyohas

Truth Arrives in Slanted Beams

Sarah Meyohas’ sublime and seductive imagery blends analog and digital technologies to illuminate the systems shaping contemporary society. As an artist, inventor, and economist, she investigates the aesthetic and creative potential within science and technology, driven by humanity’s fascination with optics and perception.

Her immersive installation showcases “caustics,” light patterns formed by the refraction or reflection of light through curved surfaces. While this optical effect often occurs naturally, such as at the bottom of a swimming pool, Meyohas transforms it, using innovative light-shaping technology enabling visitors to project sunlight onto a ribbon-like structure cascading across the desert floor.

The installation recalls ancient timekeeping technology like sundials and pays homage to 20th-century land art. Each mirrored panel, crafted using computer algorithms for light manipulation, features a unique pattern, spelling out the poetic phrase, “truth arrives in slanted beams.”

Meyohas has carefully mapped the sun’s path at this location, orchestrating the interaction between mirrors and the curved projection surface to create precise reflections and shadows throughout the day. As visitors adjust the mirrors to sharpen the projected images, they encounter unexpected visual illusions—waves, moiré patterns, or perhaps a mirage—stirring a longing for the desert’s ever-present water.

I have many thoughts about this sculpture, but this is neither the time, nor the place for that kind of discussion. Nevertheless, I hope I captured it well 💔 #PalmSprings #Marilyn
